Warriewood is a suburb in northern Sydney, at about 26 km/16 mi in the north of Sydney's CBD (Central Business District).

Warriewood is very popular with para-glider pilots due to the height that it is possible to attain. If the instinct for adventure sports runs in your blood, then you should visit this place. There is a small grassed area on the western section of the coastal cliff from where you can take off. If the lift is too light to stay up, then the only possible way to make the glide is to turn left towards the beach.

Admire the stunning views of the beach and the surrounding area while you are floating through the air. Τhe landing is in the clear area to the left of the launching point, but be careful of the strong weather conditions. This site is appropriate only for intermediate and advanced para-gliders.
