Italy -6: Gröden (Seceda), Speikboden

As already yesterday there have been more than 200 pilots flying in Canazei/ Col Rodella, I decided to avoid this site and drove to Val Garden (St.Ulrich/ Ortisei) and rode the cablecar up to Seceda.

But I didn't fly this day, as I just didn't feel like it :-((

So for the last day of flying on this trip I drove to Sand in Taufers and its world class XC-site: Speikboden.
Here I made just a short flight, as the autumn thermals have been small, pretty strong and sharp edged. But this is certainly a site worth coming back!
