Guidance and Information:

Paragliding at Hocum is a really useful site allowing flying in various conditions for a wide range of wind directions. It can often be flown when the wind at the coastal sites is too light. Take care with your lines etc when rigging and taking off on the heather.

As mentioned earlier conditions can at times be surprisingly rough. Gliders should not be left opened out on the small grassy take-off areas. Landings can be made almost anywhere on the moor top with care, however, pilots should avoid the public footpaths which can be very busy.

The site is shared with other users, eg model glider pilots. Members should make contact with them and discuss safe flying practices; they are almost always amenable to a friendly approach. If flying on the same day, agree on mutual guidelines (eg take it in turns) to ensure safe flying and the safety of others.

Thank you.
