Around the beautiful lake of Bohinj there are several startplaces.
The most suitable for acro training and competitions is the Vogel. This is a ski resort, situated south above the lake, at 1665 m AMSL. Best wind direction is NE. Take the cable car and the chairlift to Orlove Glave. From the top of this chairlift the take-off is just 100 m to the left. You can reach the lake about 800 m high by a simple glide.
The cost for the cable car and chairlift is around 2000 sit (8 EUR) for one way.
Because this area is a National Park, you have to pay around 4 EUR for the car parking.

This competition takes place in Slovenia, at the beautiful lake of Bohinj, since 2001. Till 2003 it was also also a station of the World Aerobatics Tour.
Depends on the weather conditions the pilots can take-off from the Vogar and the Vogel mountains.
Unfortunately, in 2004 the competition was cancelled, but in 2005 the contest was held again.
Update: Due to the low interest, it was cancelled again in 2007...
