Marco Guillermo also pays the rent on the best training hill in the region, near the base of launch.
A part of beautiful grass covered sheep grazing pastures, a south-east facing launch with the wind usually crossing 45 degrees from the right. There is a also a true south facing alternate further on down the trail from launch. It is a rather steep launch. There are a number of open agracultural fields at the base of launch, any which one that is not planted should be suitable for landing. The one place you should NOT land is in the country club at the base of launch, as your wing will be confiscated if you land there. Arrive at the little pueblo of El Picacho at the north end of the Malinalco Valley. There is a road leading downhill that cuts off the main highway in front of a little store called El Parapente. You may park your vehical down at the end of that road, and pay the local kids a few pesos to 'watch' your vehical. From there you walk down a little path through the pastures about one kilometer to launch. The locals know where it is. na. na.
