Site briefing
Planning information for La Seranne - Déco France
Take-off
Décollage pour le parapente et un pour le deltaplane. Vent : S et SE/SO Ne pas se jeter dans la sellette. Bien penser à courrir courrir et encore courrir. S'attendre a un thermique en sortie de déco. Et donc faire une tempo / coup de frein. Tenir sa voile.
Landing
The main landing spot is 6 km to the north-east following the mountain in 'Coupiac' (this is the prefered landing spot, and is also the pickup point for the shuttle). If landing in Coupiac is not possible a backup landing spot is just at the bottom of the takeoff (direction NE) at a site called 'Les Prats'
Access and parking
Montpellier : direction Ganges. Turn in Cazilhac-Le-Haut then take a dirt road for 40 minutes. There is a shuttle going to the take-off site once per day on most days that are flyable. The shuttle usually leaves around 13h from Coupiac (the landing spot). The shuttle is operated by the club 'Les ailes de la Seranne'. To see if the shuttle is running on a particular day, post to the discussion thread here or contact the club. It is also possible to walk up to the takeoff site, either by the road or using one of several footpaths. You should count 1 or 1.5 hours, depending on your condition. http://les-ailes-de-la-seranne.fr/
