Every OutDare forecast for this site is compared afterwards with real readings from wind stations nearby (a hit = wind within 5 km/h). This score is measured, not promised. How we measure this
Where it is
Venet / Krahberg above Zams in the Austrian Tyrol launches from 2,035 m and is flyable across a wide range of directions — north, northeast, east, south and northwest — making it a versatile cross-country launch. Reach the top by cable car from Zams. One airspace rule matters for XC plans heading northeast: pilots must not infringe on Innsbruck's (LOWI) controlled airspace in that direction, so route your line with a comfortable margin. Föhn is a serious hazard here, and strong valley wind regularly kicks in during summer landings near Zams, close to the cable-car station — that combination has caught pilots out on approach, so treat the landing phase with real respect rather than saving your attention for the flight itself.

Local rules & hazards

Check conditions before you fly
