Gnome glider

Gnome gliders are a method of transportation available after completing The Grand Tree quest. They can fly to many locations and can be used in combination with teleport spells, spirit trees, and the fairy ring network to quickly travel across Gielinor.

The fastest way to access the glider network is by either taking the royal seed pod and climbing up to the top floor with the right-click option (requiring Monkey Madness II, takes approximately 10 seconds), or using a ring of dueling to teleport to Emir's Arena and running south-west (takes approximately 13 seconds).

The military gliders can be found deactivated in the Underground Military Glider Hangar, and are activated during Monkey Madness I. Some crashed military gliders can be found on Crash Island.

Gnome gliders are located at:

• Ta Quir Priw – The Grand Tree, piloted by Captain Errdo
  • The top level provides normal service.
  • On the 1^st floor there is a special service during the Monkey Madness I quest.
• Gandius – South of the Shipyard on Karamja, piloted by Captain Klemfoodle
• Kar-Hewo – Al Kharid, piloted by Captain Dalbur
• Sindarpos – The peak of White Wolf Mountain, piloted by Captain Bleemadge
• Lemanto Andra – Just west of the Digsite near Varrock, piloted by Captain Errdo
  • This trip is one-way; the glider will crash and you cannot fly back from here. Also, you cannot use the closest gate unless you have 153 kudos at the Varrock Museum.
• Lemantolly Undri – Western Feldip Hills, piloted by Gnormadium Avlafrim
  • Close to Fairy Ring AKS
  • One Small Favour must be completed to access this glider.
• Ookookolly Undri – North-west on Ape Atoll, piloted by Captain Shoracks
  • Monkey Madness II must be completed to access this glider.

Like various other teleportation methods, the gnome gliders can be used for efficient travel, especially when doing tasks such as farming runs. The following table compares methods of reaching a glider:
