Cross Country Holidays

We are a 7 day a week gliding operation.  You can come to Lake Keepit to fly for a day, a week or several weeks. We have excellent accommodation, well maintained gliders and a friendly, welcoming club atmosphere.

Air Experience Flights

If you have always wanted to fly like a bird or just wondered what it was like, than you must experience a sailplane flight. Gliding is something like sailing in the sky but with a third dimension. It’s safe, it’s fun and it’s an experience you will never forget.

I have accompanied my gliding enthusiast son to Lake Keepit Soaring Club on several occasions over the past 5 years. He piloted my first ever soaring experience over the nearby dam which was amazing. We stayed in the Club's excellent on site accommodation and enjoyed all the facilities on offer. As a bonus I was able to access Lake Keepit for a spot of Fishing.I found the Club Members, their Guests and Staff very welcoming, friendly and professional. The "Apres Soaring" social activities and camaraderie is also thoroughly recommended
