START AND LANDING INFORMATION HOLLERSBACH
START AUTHORIZATION ONLY FOR PILOTS WITH SPECIAL PILOT LICENSE OR UNRESTRICTED AVIATOR LICENSE!
Dear guest pilots,
We, as the Drachenfliegerclub Wildkogelfalken, are responsible for maintenance and supervision of the start and landing sites. We kindly lease these grounds from the farmers and mountain railways.
To cover the maintenance costs, we rely on daily memberships.
Therefore, we ask all guest pilots who use our start and landing sites to transfer a small fee.
Valid for the start site: Neukirchen Wildkogelbahn, Bramberg Smaragdbahn and Hollersbach Berghof.
You can easily and conveniently transfer the amount via the QR code using various payment providers.
We thank you for your honesty and wish you a good flight.

Only the fenced area may be used!

BEST TIME OF DAY

NOTES:
Due to the north wind flowing in over the Pass Thurn, good soaring opportunities along the north slope!
Later reversal thermals!
Land if possible at Berghof (1175m), as the directions of the air currents vary greatly in the valley.
