This site has been created by local pilots to help others experience the stunning landscapes of Valtellina while flying.
We hope this resource will be useful for both paraglider and hang glider pilots planning to visit the region.
Only the "main" take-offs have been mapped—these are sites with great XC (cross-country) potential and easy accessibility.
A section called "Other Take-offs" provides details on additional local flying spots.
Information about take-offs, landings, logistics (access routes, main rules), and XC flight routes.
Always check flyability, weather, and wind conditions using relevant services.
This information is meant for experienced pilots in mountain conditions, who take full responsibility for their safety.
Maps on the website use Google Maps—you can open them in a new tab and switch to "satellite view" for a better understanding of the terrain.
This website is non-monetized and collects no visitor data.
