Depending on wind direction in the top. The easiest is to take off with east or north wind from the ski slopes itself. South take off where there are a couple of wind stripes is quite steep and technical, there's almost no place to run. So it's a matter of putting the wing in the air and fly, which for some pilots and depending on the conditions can be a problem.
There's a good landing field next to the parking with a windsock.
Taking the cablecar plus 2 lifting chairs to the top. One way ticket (with optional going back without flying :) is 13€.
