| Altitiude at Launch: | 900-1300ft |
| Height top to bottom: | 800-1200ft |
| Airspace: | GLASGOW SRZ |
| National Grid Reference: | NS620 800 |
| Wind Direction: | South to South West. |
| Brief Site Description: | Steep cliff site, with many launch options and a flat grassy top. Often very thermic. Good for evening soaring flights. |
| How to get there: | From Lennoxtown take the B822 (Crow Rd). Travel 2 miles North of Lennoxtown, park at viewpoint carpark, cross the road and walk to a suitable launch site. |
| Restricted Areas: | Airspace above 2000ft and outside permitted "box"(see NATS agreement), Farmfields with animals, golf course. |
| Parking Notes: | Park in the viewpoint car park on B822, 2 miles North of Lennoxtown. |
| Landowners: | Mr Haddow, Balcorrach Farm (01360 312375) owns the hill and sloping field nearest B822 - may be selling. Bottom flat fields adjacent A891 has a different owner. |
| RAF Ref. | N/A |
| Launch Notes: | Hang-gliders: Follow the track opposite the carpark up the hill to a suitable area, dependant on wind strength. |
| Paragliders: as per HG | |
| XC Tips: | Due to height restriction, not a good XC site. Possible XC route is to fly Sth. East, staying within "box" limits as per NATS agreement, and exit the SRZ near Kilsyth into TMA [E] 2500-6000ft airspace. |
| Top Landing Notes: | HG top landing is possible, but beware of soft uneven ground. Paragliders can top land anywhere, but beware of soft / uneven ground. |
| Bottom Landing Notes: | Hang-gliders: Possible to land opposite carpark but sloping ground is not ideal. Bottom fields are not presently useable (hopefully a temporary situation) Beware of power wires across bottom fields. | Paragliders: Can land opposite carpark (720ft), see HG notes regards bottom fields. |
| Hazards: | Civil aircraft flying above 2000 ft so strict adherence to ceiling is mandatory. In strong lift, good descent techniques are essential. Power wires and fences at bottom field should present no problem. PG - beware of compression in the pass above car park. |
| Special Rules: | Site is within Glasgow SRZ - see NATS agreement which you Must have read and signed. You must also be pilot rated, Must use altimeter (set to 720ft at car park), Must fly in full VMC, Must stay in agreed boxes except where they exit the SRZ. No fees payable. |
