Winter Soaring at Camden NSW, Australia

Winters in the Sydney Basin are relatively mild compared to other parts of the world. While the nights can be very cold often warm sunny days prevail allowing fun outdoor activities.

The Southern Cross Gliding Club operates 7 days a week but this is weather dependant. It is a good idea to check the weather and call the club before making your way out to Camden just to make sure that they are operating.
For more info check out the club's wesite http://www.gliding.com.au/index2.php

However, we did not find the club members at the field to be in anyway friendly or helpful. Infact we were just ignored by them. We had every intention of having two flights that afternoon with them but they just were not interested in talking to us about it. Shame, it would have made some more interesting video footage and my wife and I would have had some exposure to their sport.
