Description

The Honeysuckle site at Tumut provides launches for both paragliders and hang gliders. A dedicated ramp has been built for hang gliders.

Use of the site and granting of the permit by the Forestry Commission (FC) is conditional on the development of a Site Safety Plan and adherence to a number of Activity Conditions. These documents are linked to this page and you should familiarise yourself with the requirements of these documents and be prepared to abide by them before flying at Honeysuckle.

Importantly:

  • Do not drive off the marked roads or tracks
  • No smoking on launch or landing
  • The permit does not cover events and any planned events will require additional approval from FC

    Before flying at Honeysuckle, ensure you have reviewed the risk and activity rules agreed with the Forestry Corporation here - Forestry Permit Activity Conditions and Site Safety Plan. It is a requirement of flying at Honeysuckle that you agree to abide by these conditions.

    Please check ACTHPA guide for recent changes.
