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.

Sites Status IMPORTANT RADAR MAST (Hartside) RESTRICTED AREA EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY The club has received a request from the Landowner beneath the Radar Masts near Hartside that we do not use the shaded area in the image for Takeoffs and Landings. The Landowner is currently trying to establish itself with Natural England and would like to keep the area undisturbed. Please use good inflight planning when flying in the area, but safety comes first. If an emergency develops and you have to land in that field then do so and notify a sites officer when able.
