REMAX CCC Lema 2023

After several years of interruption, the Funivia Monte Lema SA cable car is once again organizing a free distance paragliding competition called REMAX Cross Country Cup Lema.

In the past editions, held about fifteen years ago, champions of the discipline have always imposed themselves, including Volker Nies, Beni Stocker, Manuele Dondi, Alfredo Studer and Ermanno Pedroncelli, (the latter holds, with a 223 km flight followed by a landing near Innsbruck, the free distance record with take-off from Monte Lema). Thanks to the support of numerous sponsors, the total prize money is CHF 3'500.-

Participants will be divided into different categories. The organizers thus intend to support and involve all pilots, from experienced competitors to novice pilots and women.

Monte Lema is located in the tourist region of Malcantone, near Lugano. From its panoramic peak you can admire a large part of the Alps and the pre-Alps with lakes Maggiore and Ceresio. The best time for long-distance flights is from March to June, but even between July and September hundreds of kilometers can often be covered.

Access to Monte Lema

At the Lugano Nord exit of the A2 Basel-Chiasso motorway, take the cantonal road in the direction of Ponte Tresa. At the entrance to Caslano, at the roundabout, turn right towards Novaggio and then towards Miglieglia, where the departure station of the Monte Lema cable car is located.
