DESCRIPTION

This site can be a good choice if Merthyr is blown out. It is fairly friendly away from the power lines, but the short ridge length and narrow lift band limit the capacity of this site on non-thermic days. This site is frequently used by model aircraft pilots, please respect their right to fly as well as your own. Site status: Open site - This site may be flown by suitably insured visiting hang glider and paraglider pilots.
