King Mountain T-ShirtKing Mountain

Hang Gliding Championships

King Mountain is located near Moore, Idaho, at the south end of the Lost River Range (See Road Map) in an area that compares quite favorably with the Owens Valley. There are mountain ranges towering over 12,000 ft. above the 5,000 ft. valleys; booming thermals; outrageous turbulence; and the promise of long XC flights.

 

This is a world class Hang Gliding and Paragliding site guaranteed to test your flying skills. It is challenging, lots of fun, with superb flying in some of the most scenic mountains in the world.
