Gymba mountain (48.63, 23.27, 1491m), Polonina Borzhava ridge in Carpathian Mountains.
Take-off is on the top of the Gymba mountain and allows flying in all wind directions. Take-off is grassy, covered with low blueberry bushes, thats enough space for starting out of several dozen paragliders at the same time.
The main ridge is Polonina Borzhava, about 50 km long, with a width of 3-4 km (up to 10 km and more), the highest peak is Stij Mount (1681 m).
Very interesting tasks are usually set using a combination of the main ridge, valleys and several neighboring ridges.
