A Dartmoor Countryside Warden (who was a paraglider pilot) in 2013 caught me trying to take off from Merrivale, as I'd been flying over southern Dartmoor for a couple of days. He told me to go to Yelverton, because unauthorised motor vehicles are not allowed on the National Park. I went to Yelverton and it worked out well for the southern area. That was nine years ago so things have likely changed. Good luck.

Hi Nick, I'm a bit late to the chat but I used to fly out of Dorking Rugby Club. It's owned by the National Trust and the nearest warden is on Box Hill so he has no chance of catching up to tell you not too. It's often empty, especially in the the morning or evening. I flew from their regularly from 2012 to 2019. I even took off when the rugby team were training, they loved it. Take off and go, come back quite, land and leave. The hazard is the goal posts but if you set up right and take off straight then it's a great site. When there was a football game at DRC I took off from the cricket field just south of DRC but the wind has to be from the west or north-west and you aim between the trees. I don't live there anymore so you are welcome. Happy flying. Ben
