Large launch site directly below the summit of Neunerköpfl. The Tannheimer Tal is certainly one of the most beautiful high valleys in Europe. Whether beginner or cross-country flying crack, here, just behind the Austrian border, the paragliding and hang-gliding community meets with great pleasure. Still, it's almost always civilized. The east and west starting positions are only a stone's throw away from the mountain station. The landscape offers a feast for the eyes. Gentle hills alternate with rugged rock formations and shape the landscape of the foothills of the Alps. The huge landing site directly next to the valley station of the cable car in Tannheim invites you to a stress-free flight experience in a wonderful environment with friends and acquaintances.

The north start is not allowed at the meadow launch site for GS right next to the transmitter, because the Gschwandtalm must not be flown over. Only in winter you can reach the top with the Loser window lift. Otherwise, one goes from the Loser-Berg-Restaurant the way No. 256. The Loser is one of the best flying mountains in the region around the Altaussee. For hang-gliders and paragliders there are numerous excellent take-off possibilities, which can be reached by car via the toll road Loserstrasse. Cross-country flights are possible along the Ennstal.

There are 3 different Take offs at Speiereck:The one at 2000m is mainly used in summer. To get there, you have to contact the guys from DFC Lungau (www.dfc-lungau.com) On weekend they meet at 10:00 at the landing place and go up by car.In winter time you can go up by cablecar, then it is possible to start at the normal starting place (you have to walk half an hour to reach it) or go down to the second cablecar to go up to the summit and start from there. Main launch site at the Peterbauerkreuz for southern and eastern locations. The Speiereck is the main flying mountain in the Lungau. You can start in any direction except the west. The ascent to the starting points is by club bus or the Lungau mountain railway.

The west launch site is just a few minutes' walk from the mountain station. Starts are also possible here in winter. The Choralpe near Westendorf has everything to offer that makes our heart so joyful. High mountains, the unique natural landscape of the Kitzbüheler Alps, beautiful launch sites and a large landing site. In summer there is a 15 minute walk to the starting places. The west launch site is large and somewhat undulating. But it offers plenty of space for several gliders at the start. The north starting point is narrower and steeper. Here disciplined pilots can only lay out 2 gliders at the same time. The easiest way to find thermals is from late in the morning, mainly to the right in front of the west launch site. If the thermals are good, you can mainly take routes towards Pinzgau. But even with a dynamic westerly wind, the edge that extends to the left and right of the western starting point is interesting for soaring.

large meadow, easy to start Large launch site east of the kiosk. In summer, the Zillertaler Höhenstrasse (toll road) takes you to the two starting points in the kiosk area at the vertex of the Höhenstrasse below the Arbiskopf. The ascent is possible by car, bus or shuttle of the flight school. From here you have many possibilities to get into the Zillertal thermals. If you can't find any updrafts in front of the take-off and above the round, wooded mountain ridge, you can take a look at the Perler beard on the flight path to the landing site, which you can't see from up here, and hope for climb values. Whoever succeeds in entering one of the updrafts will be faced with unforgettable flights along the Zillertal towards the Inn Valley or even into the Pinzgau. A difficult bottleneck here, however, is the Gerlos pass, which is only a side effect. The breathtaking view from the mountain road over the Zilletaler Alps and the main Alpine ridge is a blessing for body and soul, even if it is not possible to fly or only a glider of a mere 1,400 metres is inside. Since the wind conditions at the Melchboden are not well recognizable from the valley, it is also possible to get information from the staff of the snack station (kiosk) (Tel. +43/(0)664 100 30 10).

The starting places are around the stone tower below the mountain station up to the 4-seater chairlift. Ramp for HG in front of the Alpengasthof Pacheiner. With a view over the Carinthian lakes, the Gerlitzen is probably one of the most beautiful paragliding mountains in Austria. The summit plateau offers excellent starting possibilities. Dragons also find a ramp in the area of the Alpengasthof. Flying fun is guaranteed at Gerlitzen at any time of the year. But also here the wind situation has to be assessed correctly. In strong westerly winds it is difficult to make progress towards the landing site. It's better to stay on the ground. The same applies to north winds. In order to get to the landing site, you have to fly a long mountain ridge before you can turn left towards Annenheim and the landing site at the eastern end of the lake. Attention: the entrance corridor of the airport in Klagenfurt begins at 2,100 metres. A reason why cross-country flights from the Gerlitzen are not too easy to manage. Next to the road in the direction of St. Andrä, you first reach the campsite on the lake on the left and then the club landing field on the right. A few metres further on you will find the flying school and immediately opposite on the left, the landing site of the flying school. In the flying school, first-time pilots receive a friendly introduction to the terrain. If you turn right a little further from the road to St. Andrä, you will reach the large dragon landing site. The huge meadow launch site below the summit station can be reached with the Gerlitzen cable car. It's at about 1,900 meters. Alternatively, you can reach the starting point via a toll mountain road from the back of the Gerlitzen. Attention: Please observe the absolute landing ban on the Ossiachersee campsite areas!!! Unauthorized landings on the beaches and meadows will be punished by the police!
