Rodborough Common is all owned by the National Trust, it has 2 slopes around a bowl. The SE slope flies right along the Thrupp Valley. This provides good smooth lift.
The other side of the bowl flies E round to NE and can get quite bumpy.
Please fly and land carefully, there is a road running fairly close behind the slopes and there is always a lot of dog walkers present.
Access
The SE slope has a car park just 50 metres walk to the slope.
The NE slope has a car park just 300 metres heading South at 51.730096, -2.216708. This is only 25 metres to the slope.
