Mendanha - RJ, Brazil Altitude: 600 meters (1968 feet) Vertical Drop: 580 meters (1902.4 feet) Wind Direction: S, SE, SW Coordinates: S22° 49' 53" W 043° 31' 64" Access: Take Avenida Brasil to Campo Grande, then exit onto Estrada do Mendanha heading towards the Mendanha district. Continue to the VW Vans’ stop and follow the road to the power towers. Near the top, there is a sign indicating the free-flight area. Ask for permission from Mr. Arquilau to pass through his small farm. The distance from Avenida Brasil to the ramp is approximately 11 km, with 8.5 km on a fairly good dirt road. Take-off: Natural ramp for 3 paragliders and a wooden ramp for hang-gliders. Landing: Official landing site at local pilot João’s farm, with various options at the base of the mountain in fields and clubs. Top landing is also possible. Best Season: All year round, with the best conditions from August to January. Official Club: Unregistered Advantages: Popular among local pilots, easy and predictable flights, beautiful views, good ramp with top landing possibilities for those without retrieval. Disadvantages: Close to the landing route of Rio de Janeiro International Airport. High tension power lines between take-off and landing require extra attention. General Info: Rural area with no hotel infrastructure.
