Spot located at the top of the Visperterminen ski resort. This is also where the Gebidumsee (Gebidum Lake) is located. It's a mountain spot that is swept by winds from the Southwest to Northwest sectors. A large plateau, with wind and visibility that isn't always easy to predict, but the presence of a weather station with live wind data and a webcam should greatly help your decisions.
