    Northumbria Hang-gliding and Paragliding Club

    Welcome

    The Northumbria Hang-Gliding and Paragliding Club is a small, but dedicated club consisting of pilots from Newcastle-upon-Tyne and surrounding areas of Durham and Northumberland.We have a good number of excellent, uncrowded sites covering most wind directions situated in the beautiful surroundings of the Cheviots and North Pennines. Visiting pilots are most welcome but please contact the club first.

    Better still, come along to one of our club meetings for a beer and a chat, everyone welcome. We meet the first wednesday of every month at the Corner House, Heaton Road, Heaton, Newcastle, Tyne & Wear NE6 5RP at 7.30pm.
