PGAWC DOBROVLJE 2022
For you registration to be valid, you have to register on both FAI and PGAWC sites!
Aves paragliding club was only formed in late 2020 with intention to bring together all paraglider pilots in Savinja valley and to further develop the sport in the region. As accuracy competitions have a history dating back to the 90’s in this region, we have decided to bring them back to locally promote the sport.
Dobrovlje is a plateau separating the upper and lower Savinja valley in central Slovenia. Its highest peak is just short of 900m above sea level. The launch site is located on the plateaus eastern edge and overlooks the lower Savinja valley. The launch is big enough for four gliders and is flyable in easterly winds. Landing is a big grassy field with no obstacles and is visible from takeoff.
