Welcome to Vliegclub Hoogeveen!

The VCH is a gliding club located at Hoogeveen Airport (EHHO), the Netherlands. Guests are welcome to have a look or to fly with us. We fly from March 1st till the end of October, everyday except Tuesdays and Thursdays, from 10:00 AM until sunset. Usually the gliders are launched by aerotow, and occasionally in the early morning or in the evening we pull out our winch.

Flight options
