Where to go slope-soaring ?

Slope soaring needs special conditions, not readily available all over the place.  Since I live in Horten, the supply of suitable slopes are a problem.  The combination of a clean hill with proper wind, good landing conditions and a short walk from the car-park is not an easy one.  In Norway, the best ones are definitely in the Stavanger region. The plateau at Hanstholm in Denmark also has some superior slopes.
