One peak, one lipo, one take

WillyWonka...

Take a moment to enjoy a tour with WillyWonka around Italy's Pyramids of Postalesio Natural Reserve, a place he likened to Middle Earth from the famed Lord of the Rings series. These incredible boulders are formed by the erosive action of rain water, which washed away the surrounding land and then exposed these impressive formations. The entire scene, as much as it is beautiful, provides for a fantastic FPV playground full of gaps, craggy turns, and plenty of vertical relief to keep any drone pilot fully engaged!
