Bir-Billing at the southern edge of the Indian Himalayas without
doubt can be counted among the best flying sites in the world. A passable forest
road leads up to the launch sites. For the launch space, not a single bush
needed to be cut for ideal take off opportunities in three directions. The
flying region was discovered in the 1980's by hang glider pilots. With their at
that time seemingly usual cocky occurrence and outrageous sense of entitlement
towards the local farmer society they quickly made themselves unpopular. This
was repelled subtlety by the local population. Only years later with the
paraglider boom free flight became a substantial component of the local economy.

Bir is a very well established paragliding site, with decent road, nice Hotels
and an ample landing field. Going over the back there is another chapter,
meaning You fly into extrem terrain. A look at the map shows however, that
within glide there are the Barot valley and the Kullu valley with distinct
landing opportunities and good roads for retrieval.
