Draper, UT 84020
Closely located near the I-15 Freeway in Draper, Utah.
The North Side Point of the Mountain Flight Park is one of best paragliding locations in the WORLD!
Why you ask?
The beautiful mountains in Utah create a perfect wind flow in the Salt Lake Valley which make the wind travel north and south. The Point of the Mountain sticks out in the valley like a thumb, creating a perfect wave for that wind to blow over the Point which results in great flying conditions all year round.
Typically better suited for afternoon and evening flights, this 2 mile long ridge creates enough constant lift for you to soar anywhere from 20 minutes to over an hour. Flights where you can soar over 1,000+ feet above the ground (6,500 MSL) are very common.
There may not be a better view in all of Salt Lake, Utah.
This Salt Lake County Flight Park has a asphalt parking lot, running water in the well kept restrooms and a large grass area for take off and landings.
