Corryong Cup Hang Gliding Competition

Soar above the stunning Upper Murray landscape at the Corryong Cup Hang Gliding Competition, attracting top pilots from around Australia. Held in one of the country's most scenic locations, this event is known for its fun and friendly atmosphere. The Mt Elliot launch offers safe, easy take-offs with reliable lift almost every afternoon, and the terrain is perfect for flying with large paddocks for easy landings. While the flying is spectacular, the real highlight is the people—both pilots and organisers are welcoming and enthusiastic, creating a great sense of community. The Corryong Cup caters to all skill levels, with classes for new pilots (Floater and Sport) and seasoned flyers (Open). The goal is to grow participation in the beginner classes while maintaining its inclusive and fun nature. If you’re new to competitions, come to the Corryong Cup—it’s truly "Where the Fun Begins!" The event starts with a practice day and evening registration on the first Saturday, followed by the competition on Sunday. Whether you're a pilot or a spectator, the sight of colourful wings against the Snowy Mountains is breathtaking and unforgettable.
