Excellent site with lift on the northerly Bratton Camp between 350 degrees and 040 degrees. If the wind backs you can move over to the White Horse side which works in winds from 260 degrees through to about 350 degrees.

Bratton Camp is a large grass area with a north slope. There is NO bottom landing but side landings are ok. Takeoff can be done anywhere on the large camp area and it is great for beginners. Hang-glider pilots often elect to depart from the White Horse side due to the nearness of the car park to that takeoff area. Land anywhere on the Camp. A large field area for landing makes practice easy without getting in other flyer's way. The camp slopes slightly down toward the east. If you have 200 feet above take off you may fly over the back and land by the car park, but beware ROTOR near the cars due to the earthworks of the ancient fort. Hang gliders may land behind the site next to the car park. This is a very large field. Watch out for kite flyers! Drive to Westbury (A350). Take the B3098 to Bratton. In Bratton village turn first right up the hill and use the free car park. Hang gliders set up next to the car park on the grass. Site rules: Do not land in any fields except the main car park field, and the bottom Emergency field. WARNING! The Salisbury Plain Military Danger Area lies directly behind (i.e. to the south) the whole site. Do not go XC except via accepted departure routes!

When wind is west to northwest we often get out-of-phase wave from the Welsh mountains (Black mountains) causing takeoff to be gusty and difficult. Rotor will form over the back of the slope near the car park. Land far back of the car park in wind.
