KJERAG 9th JULY 2024 #hanggliding
Flying my Icaro 2000 Piuma glider down from the Kjerag cliffs.
Very beautiful day. Didn't see any people or tents on the mountain at all.
Very unusual now in the tourist season. I was the only person up here.
The whole mountain for myself. ( 3 base jumpers followed later )

Then the long time experience of landing in small and weird LZ come in handy 😁 actually landing in a tiny spot is not difficult. Usually there are many natural or man made objects to use as reference/way points close bye to judge where you should be at any time. As opposed to landing near a plastic cone in the middle of a large field. That’s just IMO 👍 cheers

    Nice video! Many years ago, when I was at Lysebotn at paragliding SIV course, we flew from the restaurant out to Kjerag and back one evening. It is uncommon that the conditions allow that, but this was a very warm day and we flew on a mix of thermals and convergence. So we landed at the camping. Land on this spot seems a bit small, specially with a hangglider. Super-place in general and a visit is highly recommended for all who has not been there. It feels cool just to sit on the camping drinking coffee and watching the mountains. Very spectacular.
