Mount Rennie
Nice southerly site near town, flyable on the seabreeze. If you haven't been here before, contact Cloudbase Paragliding Club, check on the current access arrangements, and preferably organise your first flight with a club member who has good knowledge of this site. This site is privately owned, so is sensitive and could easily be lost. Contact local pilots in Geraldton before heading up there to get an update on current access situation.

Difficult take off for paragliders due to the shape of the hill which tends to create a very stong wind right at launch in soarable conditions, but less wind on the face starting well back from the edge makes the inflation easier. Bottom landing is best near the road up the hill, to the right of take off. XC record is only 20km or so. Nice view of the "mushroom farm" spy base if you get some height.
