Slope Soaring

 

                     

                           


 

 

 

 


 

Holme Moss

 

This is privately owned land however it has been used for slope soaring for well over 30 years by both fliers this side of the Pennines and from the dark side in Lancashire.

Holme Moss accomodates wind directions from North to East and when the conditions are right the lift can be great and very smooth.

 

Greater care needs to be taken when flying from Holme Moss though as it is very much a public site with many tourists stopping there to take in the great views. The other thing to be careful about is the use of Holme Moss by Paragliders and Hang Gliders. It is essential that good communications exist between the different participants so that each know which airspace they will be flying in.

 

All frequencies can be used at Holme Moss but please check with other fliers to stop any clashes.
