Comments :
An area on the slopes of Gunung Mas is currently the most popular. Views over the stunningly beautiful rural country side of Java
Weather hazards :
problems with wind and rainy weather during the northeast monsoon (November-February.)
A short ridge and wind speeds of 8-25 km/hr provide good lift. You launch from a prepared ramp, climb to about 300m, then pick up lift from a higher hill behind. The best flight path is to the south, towards Mounts Pangrango and Salak. Bogor City is visible in the distance.
