Bir Billing Tour Package from Delhi – 5 Nights / 6 Days
An Amazing Adventure by Six Delhi University Students
Introduction – The Dream of Flying
Every college student dreams of that one perfect trip — a break from the chaos of lectures, assignments, and exams. For us, six Delhi University students who shared not just a classroom but a bond of endless laughter, Bir Billing turned out to be that dream destination.
After endless Google searches for paragliding destinations in India, we came across Bir Billing, tucked away in the serene laps of Palampur, Himachal Pradesh. Known as the Paragliding Capital of Asia, it instantly captured our imagination. We knew this was where we’d unwind, fly, and make unforgettable memories.
Day 1: The Journey Begins – Delhi to Bir Billing
Our journey began early in the morning from Delhi. Ramesh, the most organized among us, had booked an Innova for the 12-hour road trip. Our driver, Jacky, greeted us warmly, and his humor instantly set the tone for the trip.
As we left the city lights behind, the car was filled with excitement, music, and endless chatter about our adventure ahead.
Breakfast Halt – Murthal’s Amrik Sukhdev Dhaba
Our first stop was Amrik Sukhdev Dhaba in Murthal, Haryana — a must-visit for every Delhi traveler. We feasted on aloo parathas, paneer parathas, and tall glasses of lassi. Jacky recommended the masala chai — and it was perfect!
On the Road – Laughter, Music & Mountains
We sang to our favorite songs and enjoyed the scenic drive through Karnal, Ambala, and Kiratpur Sahib. As we approached the hills, pine forests surrounded us, and the cool air reminded us we were close to paradise.
Lunch Stop – Haveli, Kurukshetra
We stopped at Haveli, a beautifully themed Punjabi restaurant near Kurukshetra. The rustic decor and rich dal makhani, butter chicken, and tandoori rotis were just what we needed after hours on the road.
Evening Tea Stop – Pahalwan Tea Stall, Near Una
As the sun set, we stopped at Pahalwan Tea Stall near Una. The owner, Mohan Lal, shared local tales as we sipped strong ginger tea with pakoras. It was one of those small yet unforgettable travel moments.
Reaching Bir – Night at the Campsite
We reached Bir Billing by evening, greeted by twinkling lights and mountain air. Our host, Atul — also our paragliding pilot — welcomed us warmly. The campsite had wooden cottages, fairy lights, and a bonfire area.
Dinner was a homemade Himachali feast — rajma chawal and siddu. We danced, sang, and talked under a sky full of stars.
Day 2: Exploring Bir & Billing
After breakfast, we visited Bir Monastery (Chokling Monastery), surrounded by colorful prayer flags and peaceful vibes. Later, we drove to Billing, the famous paragliding take-off site, surrounded by lush forests and views of the Kangra Valley.
Dinner and Bonfire Fun
Atul arranged a traditional Himachali Dham for dinner. We sat around the bonfire, strumming the guitar, singing college songs, and enjoying the mountain serenity.
Day 3: The Paragliding Experience – Flying Over the Valley
This was the highlight of our trip. After a safety briefing from Atul, we reached the take-off point. The wind was perfect, and soon we were flying! The view from above — valleys, rivers, and snow peaks — was breathtaking.
Each flight lasted around 30 minutes, but the memory will last forever. Landing in Bir, we were all grinning ear to ear — the dream of flying had come true.
Evening Walk & Café Hopping
We explored June 16 Café, Glider’s Inn, and Garden Café, enjoying momos, pancakes, and coffee while reliving our flying experience.
Day 4: Exploring Local Life – Tea Gardens & Palampur Visit
We visited Palampur, known for its tea gardens. The Norling Tea Estate tour was delightful — we saw tea processing and enjoyed fresh samples. We also visited the historic Baijnath Temple before returning to camp for homemade siddu by Atul’s mother.
Day 5: Leisure, Nature Walk & Local Shopping
We spent the day exploring the village, talking to locals, and shopping for woolen shawls and caps. The evening bonfire turned emotional as we shared memories and songs for the last time.
Day 6: Return Journey to Delhi
After a heartfelt goodbye to Atul and his family, we began our return journey. We stopped again at Haveli and Pahalwan Tea Stall, reminiscing about our adventure. By nightfall, Delhi’s skyline greeted us back to reality — but part of our hearts stayed in Bir.

Ramesh’s Thoughts
Our 5 Nights / 6 Days Bir Billing Paragliding Package from Delhi wasn’t just a trip — it was a story of friendship, freedom, and flying. From the jokes on the highway to the flight above the valley, it reminded us that the best journeys are shared with the best people.
“Sometimes, you don’t need wings to fly — just the right friends and the right mountains.”
