Algodonales is a picturesque town located in southern Spain. It’s known for its consistent weather throughout the year and also for its great opportunities for large cross-country flights in the months of spring.  The main mountain of Algodonales provides takeoff possibilities in almost all wind directions.

There are plenty of choices for accommodation. In case of days with bad weather, it’s a good place to hike or visit the surrounding towns like Sahara, Olvera, or even the city of Ronda. You can read more about flying in Algodonales here.
