The huge landing pasture allows plenty of room for error as new pilots learn to precisely control the path of their flight. They quickly gain the skill and confidence to land the glider within a few feet of a cone marking the landing target. All of the launches are favorably sloped, weather conditions are generally mild, and the landing area is an easy glide away, keeping the challenges manageable and progress toward advanced skills rapid. Few areas of the country have a site that makes moving up in the hang gliding world so easy. Flying at Ed Levin is administered by the Wings of Rogallo Hang Gliding Club.
Members maintain the site and are there to help new pilots make the required training flights.
To reach Ed Levin County Park, take hwy. 680 or hwy. 880 to highway 237. Head east on hwy. Turn left on Downing and head straight into the park.
