Faeroe islands Paragliding Sites

Good in afternoon with light NE wind, breeze from SW normally. 1- and 2-seater http://flyinguide.com/index.php/en/ Altitude 1007m

Tower of Time Easily accessible by car; park at the "Feuerturm" and descend a few meters. Very nice meadow start, complex approach. Thermal flights in / over the caldera (restricted area to the south due to National Parkk, rangers watch out!) Base altitude often too low for the fire tower in northerly conditions. Valley wind in Caldera can be dangerously strong -> danger to life, few landing possibilities (but there is a parking lot at the bottom of the valley) Landing site: Tazacorte harbor Take-off TORRE DEL TIME (fire tower), Matthias, 12.03.2005 Take off parallel to the edge of the rock and then fly over the steep edge with sufficient height. Usually (very) strong thermals are to be expected here. This is due to the early sunlight. Supraregional South + East = Lee! 1- and 2-seater Altitude 1132m

the take off is small and difficult Starting area with (battered) starting mats. Beware of approaching cars. Power line above the course. No idea if the glider will stay under it, it's definitely an open line. Altitude 445m

To fly in the Sierra de Tramuntana you have to REQUEST a FLIGHT PERMIT since it is a Natural Area and is regulated by the regulations (Plan for the Management of Natural Resources-PORN: decree 19/2007 of March 16).
