SAURATOWN MOUNTAIN CLOSED !!!!!

Please do not use the mountain until further notice. Our lease has not been renewed for use of the mountain. The officers and members are pursuing resolution.

The Club

Sauratown Mountain has been flown since 1981. The Sauratown Mountain Hang Gliding Club was formed in December of 1987 and continues to oversee and regulate all flying activities on the mountain. Current club membership is a mix of approximately 26 Hang Gliding and Paragliding pilots.

For more information see Club Information.

The Mountain

Sauratown mountain is located 20 miles north of Winston-Salem in North Carolina. The SMHGC regulates all hang gliding activities at two launch locations on the mountain's top. As with numerous other flying sites, Sauratown is a radio and television transmitting facility and is easily recognizable by its two 700' towers.

For more information see Mountain Information.
