What Travelers Love
  • Unique Gliding Experience: Visitors appreciate the opportunity to participate in guest flights and "Schnupperkurse" (taster courses) to experience glider flying firsthand during summer weekends with good weather. The recent allowance for various launch methods like aero-tows, self-starts, and bungee launches enhances the flying experience.
  • Strong Community and Club Life: The airfield fosters a vibrant club atmosphere, emphasizing teamwork and shared experiences. Activities include youth camps, communal meals, grilling, and campfires, creating a welcoming and social environment.
  • Family-Friendly Events: The regular "Flugplatzfest" (airfield festival) is a major draw, offering entertainment for all ages, food and drinks, and the chance to enjoy passenger flights. These events are well-regarded for their engaging and inclusive nature.
  • Relaxed and Welcoming Atmosphere: The overall environment is described as relaxed, making it an enjoyable place for both active flyers and visitors to spend time.
Common Complaints
  • No significant common complaints were found in recent traveler reviews. As a dedicated gliding airfield, it operates differently from a commercial airport; therefore, typical concerns like security wait times or customs/immigration experiences are not applicable. Similarly, "terminal facilities" as understood in commercial aviation are not present.

Gustorfer Höhe Airfield offers a specialized and highly communal experience, centered around the passion for gliding. It is highly recommended for those interested in experiencing glider flights, engaging with the local aviation community, or attending family-friendly airfield festivals. Transportation is primarily by car, with directions provided to the site, and informal parking is available on-site.
