CLUB
(TALGARTH)
Situated in the Brecon Beacons National Park
amongst the highest mountains in South Wales,
Talgarth has more soarable days than any other UK
gliding club. Longest ridge routes; wave in all wind
directions.
In 1985 the Club average flight duration was 1i
hours. Surely the premier location for any soaring
course. Courses run from mid March to mid October
and include holidays, introductory and advanced
mountain flying cross country courses.
