Bir Billing Offers October Paragliding Beneath Himalayan Peaks

Bir Billing is a place in Himachal Pradesh where people enjoy paragliding.

It sits in the Kangra Valley below the Dhauladhar mountains.

October is a particularly good month for flying there.

The rainy season has ended by then.

Clouds usually clear, and the winds become more predictable.

Gliders begin their flights from a high meadow at Billing.

They land in the Tibetan colony of Bir.

Along the way, they can see snowy Himalayan peaks.
