Large flat area with space to lay out the glider and sort the lines. Medium-steep grassy launch slope with a kite ramp on the left and space for 3 gliders on the right.
Not entirely safe, especially for paragliders, if there is no wind from the front: risk of accident!
Be careful in westerly winds due to leeward trees!
There is a hut right next to the launch site which is open during the day and has an up-to-date flight weather report from Austrocontrol
Steep meadow launch site in wide forest aisle for hang gliders (ramp) and paragliders.
The Emberger Alm in Greifenburg is one of the top areas in the Alps for flying. The conditions are ideal. A super infrastructure combined with a scenic and thermally attractive flying site. Therefore the flying scene meets in Greifenburg. Every year competitions and countless XC flights with hang gliders and paragliders are held here. The Drau Valley also offers good conditions for cross-country flying novices with sufficient off-field landing possibilities (please always land only on mowed meadows). Flights into the Puster Valley are possible, but not easy. Meeting point is the Fliegercamp at the landing site. From here with shuttle to the take-off site Emberger Alm with 1100 m altitude difference or to other take-off sites in the area. Large meadow and space to set up at Emberger Alm. Takeoffs only with downwind. With west wind danger of turbulence. The large landing area is located directly at the Fliegercamp. Attention power lines! Pay attention to landing voltages. The campsite with swimming lake and high ropes course is also ideal for families. In addition to the campsite, there are also numerous guesthouses and inns in Greifenburg and the surrounding area.
In Greifenburg there are no more competing cab companies. Only the Dünhofer family drives with 2 coaches and large trailers to the mountain, reliably and regularly (check times beforehand: it changes from time to time! https://www.duenhofenhuette.at/flieger-wanderbus/ & call) at 10 am, at 12 pm and at 3 pm. For 10 € the pilot will be transported to the launch site. Launch tickets available at the launch site and at the Fliegercamp.
