Free Flying Spots in Ryfylke

Ryfylke’s topography provides specialized conditions for paragliding and BASE jumping, centered around the 1,000-meter vertical cliffs of the Kjerag massif. These sites range from technical BASE exit points in Lysebotn to thermal paragliding launches near Jørpeland and Forsand. The area features established landing zones and local flying clubs that manage safety protocols for the steep fjord terrain and coastal wind patterns.
