Angelina and Paragliding in Turrialba<\/h3>\n<\/div>

La Angelina, in Turrialba, is one of Costa Rica's most popular paragliding areas due to its exceptional characteristics and proximity to San Jos\u00e9. The valley has seen countless pilots and instructors hone their paragliding skills while soaring over the slopes of the Turrialba volcano. Its favorable thermal and thermodynamic conditions are its greatest asset; many pilots visit during the tropical summer season, which, trade winds permitting, offers the best time for exceptional flying.<\/p>\n

These satellite images contain embedded flights and thermal updrafts of many pilots during different times of the year. The map shows the evolution of the thermal map, the convective potential of the area, and the tracks throughout the valley.<\/p>\n

The map displays the Alps by default. Scroll left to locate the American continent and Costa Rica. In the adjustment layers at the top left, select SKYWAYS and THERMALS to view ascents and tracks.<\/p>\n<\/div>
