In September 2022 I spent two weeks on the Italian island Sardinia. Since it was a family holiday, paragliding was not my priority, but I took my small pi 3.19 with me and hoped to find an opportunity for at least one flight. Sardinia is incredibly beautiful, but the landscape doesn't really offer areas for takeoff and landing in such an easy way as I'm used to as an Austrian.
In the North-Eastern part of the island, near the village Nuoro, I found what I was looking for: Monte Ortobene is easily accessible by car. The take off area is situated directly beneath the road. Not perfect, quite steep, short and narrow, you really need the right wind here (which is South to South-East). I'd have preferred it a bit stronger, but with a little assistance in pushing the glider upwards it worked fine. Landing fields are no problem here, but you have to pay attention that the thistles dont't damage your glider.
If you want to find the place, watch the Ayvri-3D-simulation at the end of my video, that should help.
