Forecast and webcams

Before you go

Forecasts often disagree. When Windguru, ALADIN and Windy agree, it is worth going.

Tips for this spot

Always a helmet; on a mountainboard also wrist and knee guards.
A mown meadow or firm beach is best. Walk the area for molehills, stones and fences before you launch.
There is no water to fall into: start with a smaller kite than you would take on water.

In riders' own words

„nejlepší vítr SZ,S,J,JV“
„parkování je OK u budovy aeroklubu“
„v zimě nelítají...tak se nic nedomlouvá“
„povrch je tráva takže se v zimě dá jezdit na méně než 5 cm sněhu, vítr zde fouká prakticky stále z důvodu nadmořské výšky 560 m.n.m“

Wind by month
