In Germany, too, AFAIK.

It can be done legally in Germany. You have to have a cloud flying
rating and submit a flight plan and get a DFS clearance. Your gilder has
to be equippt with some more instruments.
I know some people who have done it, even with airspace C crossings in
higher altitude after leaving the CU.
