When is the best time to go to the foot of the Pyrenees to go fly ? Same question asked weekly down here in Alicante. Difficult to answer, but last week of june beginning of july surely ain't the worst.
We have been organising these trips now for the third time, same time of the year. And each time we hardly missed a days flying.
Funny thing is, that we are there alone, except a few local buddies I know from the schools/clubs.
And lets thank Paco and Oriol for the local knowledge in Berge, then Miguel and Jordi for Ager, and last but not least Micky from Parapente Pireneos to keep us updated about the flying in Organya. Thanks to those local pilots, we were flying in safe conditions, were at the right time at their sites. Without them local info, our trips wouldn't have been so succesfull.

When things got strong and thunderstorms were approaching we were already having our ice chilled beers, ready to go jump in the cristal clear lakes nearby. Although some were still in the air, we decided to chill.
Bottom foto, whilst clouds were developing rapidly, and Cunimbs were visible behind the mountain, a couple of pilots still were in the air. Not for us though.
