Site Description

Moel y Parc (not a club site) is an extremely sensitive hill. There is no bottom landing. The site is not suitable for inexperienced pilots. Slope landing low down, high-profile use, or use in conflict with the graziers or conservation aims of the site will result in a denial of use. The graziers have requested that we do not use this site at all from May to September incl. in order that stock can be settled on the hill. Please contact local pilots or sites rep (Tim Salter) before going to this site.
