Who wouldn’t want to experience the joys of paragliding<\/strong> like Yash did? He elucidates on his high-on-adrenaline trip to Bir Billing. He booked a tour package of 1 night 2 days to Bir Billing from TravelTriangle<\/strong> for two that included transfers, accommodation, meals, trekking and paragliding.<\/em><\/p>\n

I was surfing Facebook as usual one day when I came across TravelTriangle\u2019s advertisement of a weekend trip to Bir Billing.<\/strong> The image of paragliding caught my attention and I got an idea to turn my wildest dream into reality.<\/p>\n

Without giving it any second thoughts, I booked a weekend package and within few hours, Akash from TravelTriangle<\/strong> got in touch with me. He explained the entire trip and proceedings very clearly and in no time, I couldn\u2019t believe that I was actually going on an adventure of my lifetime.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve Only Just Begun!<\/h2>\n

We took a bus from Majnu Ka Tila<\/strong>, a famous spot in Delhi in the evening around 8 pm and embarked on our journey. On our way, the driver stopped around midway and we had dinner at a local restaurant. As we continued our journey, I could see other travelers getting excited too. As we stopped for a tea break early in the morning, everyone started talking and sharing their excitement.<\/p>\n

We reached at our homestay in Bir at about 11 am<\/strong> and quickly freshened up. After we had finished our breakfast, our trip coordinator Ankur<\/strong> surprised us with the news that we\u2019ll have to do paragliding on first day<\/strong> itself.<\/p>\n

When Our Hearts Sank In The Surprise!<\/h2>\n

Originally scheduled on the second day, the paragliding adventure was preponed to first day as the weather conditions were changing<\/strong> and chances of the second day getting worse for paragliding were high.<\/p>\n

Finally we were there at the paragliding site and my heart beats got faster<\/strong> as others went running towards the edge. Their screams were a mixed emotion of fear and excitement.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since I was the second one in my group, Ankur made sure I was clear with the instructions as I put on the paragliding gears. My wingman looked super cool whereas I was still a bit shaky.<\/p>\n

Without giving it anymore thoughts we ran towards the edge and the next moment, the wind brushed through my skin, I was in the sky<\/strong> and that was the moment when I understood the real meaning of being on top of the world.<\/p>\n

Up Above The World So High!<\/h2>\n

Incredible as it was, it was an awesome experience to feel up above the world so high and like a diamond in the sky (*Giggles*).<\/strong> Himachal<\/a> looked so glorious from a height of 10,000 feet.<\/strong> Moreover, the fact that I completed my glide in the first run was even more exciting.<\/p>\n

Flying Without Wings Be Like!<\/h2>\n

Enjoying some acrobat stunts while landing<\/strong> added to the joy of paragliding for 25 minutes<\/strong> in which we covered a distance of about 15kms by-road from Bir to Billing.<\/strong> This was an unforgettable moment and an awesome experience indeed!<\/p>\n

Still shivering due to our paragliding experience, I felt really hungry. After relishing a sumptuous lunch near the site with Manali Hills in the backdrop<\/strong>, we decided to go to the campsite via traveler and start downhill trekking<\/strong> next morning. All of us felt the same as it was already getting dark and plus, paragliding had beaten the hell out of us already.<\/p>\n

Chilling Out At The Campsite!<\/h2>\n

On reaching the campsite we all went to our allotted tents, put our warm clothes on and got ready to enjoy the bonfire.<\/strong> There was a lot of singing, dancing and fun around the bonfire.<\/p>\n

Music, Dance, Bonfire And A Sky Full Of Stars!<\/h2>\n

Everyone was so chilled out and feeling light after paragliding that it felt like a scene straight out of some clich\u00e9d Bollywood movie.<\/strong> All of us enjoyed the scrumptious dinner together with our new friends and rested for the night as we gazed at the sky illuminated by the stars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Basking In The Morning Glory!<\/h2>\n

We woke up to one of the best mornings in our lives.<\/strong> With such astounding views of the valley, we could hear the shouts of joy and pleasure of people paragliding in the morning.<\/p>\n

We trekked down the mountain through dense forests and tough tracks.<\/strong> I had never felt so close to nature like I did on the weekend trip. Nature was blooming with all its might and amidst the breathtaking views, we finished our trek of 8 to 9 kms in just 3 hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n
