Live seven-day Alpine flying weather with launch direction, altitude and local site information for Mombarone.
Site briefing
Mombarone is a paragliding launch in the Italian Alps. Its recorded elevation is 2,267 m and its mapped launch aspects are S, SW. Compare the live forecast at launch with winds aloft, gusts, cloud base, rain and daylight before checking current local access and airspace information.
Good takeoff technique is required! Not for beginners. No windsocks available, but there is a flag on the mountain refugee (when it is open). It can be a little bumpy out there. If you want a relaxing glide, best time to takeoff is in the evening, after 17.00.
Takeoff possible below the mountain refugee, at about 2300 m. Directions available are SW and S... just choose a place on the grass (be careful with rocks!) Possible takeoff also facing E (it's more like NE...) with nil to light winds. This is the best takeoff to open your wing, because there is a little flat spot
San Giacomo official landing.
About 2.5 to 3 hours hike from San Giacomo.
