This is both a spectacular and intimidating site which can be difficult to understand without a lot of local experience. The site has much to offer, from smooth evening ridge soaring to very powerful thermals that could be used to push you on your way to long distance cross country flying.

Taking Care of our Sites

We have access to a beautiful bushland site at Blackheath that we need to look after not only for ourselves but also the pilots of the future.

Getting Back to Launch

The walking track back to launch is not clearly defined and even having done the walk back from the Landing Zone once or twice with others, it can be easy to get lost due to the numerous tracks that criss-cross the escarpment.
