~ 500 m top to bottom, take off especially built for the GhanaParaglidingFestival : excellent quality. Light wind in Launch area, even when good wind up the face due to cliff below launch, forward launch recommended. Narrow Launch, with tall trees on either side necessitates a straight launch. Soccer field, Its easy to find a Taxi from here back up to Launch, or to walk to Rojo Hotel accross the road for a swim :) ~ 150 kms North West from Accra on Kumasi Road. VFR up to 2800m Asl (Which is always above cloud base, so no problem) VFR up to 2800m Asl (Which is always above cloud base, so no problem)
