Take-off possible from NE to S via the East.
Landing possible in the village on the mown fields, at the bottom of the slopes next to the "Chez Mireille" restaurant, or in the valley. Beware, landing in the village in the afternoon is turbulent.
Thermal activity in the morning - good cross-country start
Dangers to be noted in the practice area:
The breeze for take-off is southerly. Be careful, however, if the weather tendency is towards a southerly wind, you can have dangerous foehnical conditions in the air.
Beware also of the breeze, which can be strong in the afternoon in the valley.
Lift cables at Cordon ski resort. Much lower than the take-off point, but not too troublesome.
