While Bir-Billing is renowned for its paragliding adventures, it harbours a hidden treasure: the Palpung Sherabling Monastery, one of India's ancient monastic sanctuaries. Adding to the cultural richness is the Chokling Monastery in the Bir Tibetan colony. Here, a colossal Padmasambhava statue and a stupa grace the gompa. Beyond the thrill of paragliding, these monastic wonders offer a serene escape into the heart of spirituality.
Bir offers two prime seasons for visitors: from March to May and late September to November. From April to June, the atmosphere remains pleasantly warm. However, monsoons bring heavy rainfall, and thus, increase the risk of landslides. Winters, harsh with sub-zero temperatures, create a snowy wonderland. Located at 5,000 feet, Bir Billing seems to touch the clouds, making it one of the most breathtaking destinations in the north.
From March to May, Bir transforms into a haven for adventure enthusiasts and creates the onset of the paragliding season. With temperatures ranging from a pleasant 11°C to 25°C and consistent air thermals of 6-12 meters per second, the weather becomes ideal for paragliding. This period witnessed a surge in tourists, especially beginners. Summer in Bir is bustling with activity, offering short-term paragliding courses, and thrilling tandem rides. Apart from paragliding, the season beckons with opportunities for mountain biking and hiking. Many paragliding competitions add to the excitement.
Beyond the adrenaline rush, immerse yourself in the local culture by hiking to nearby villages, where the charming locals welcome you with warmth. Test your fishing skills with trout fishing and catch your own meal. Summer in Bir promises not just adventure but also a memorable cultural experience for you and your loved ones.

Monsoon casts heavy rain over Bir and drenches the land with an average of 550 mm of rainfall in three months. Paragliding takes a pause, and outdoor ventures become challenging due to continuous rain. The trails, intended for trekking and hiking, turn slippery and dissuade even the most avid explorers.
Between July and September, Bir loses its usual charm. It's wise to steer clear of this region during the monsoon, allow nature to replenish its beauty, and plan your visit for more inviting times.

The cloud base, stretching from 4000-6000 meters, reappears after the monsoon and provides a perfect canvas for paragliders to take flight.
The aftermath of the monsoon enhances the region’s beauty by transforming the landscape into a lush spectacle, especially during the harvest season. Tandem flights become a popular choice.
