The route we start from

These are the stages published for this trip. A stage can cover part of a day or several days; it is not a separate travel day.

1. Stage 01

   Overnight In

   The overnight bus to Bir, check in to the camp, and spend the first evening at the landing zone watching gliders come down, which is both the entertainment and a useful preview of tomorrow. Bir is a small Tibetan settlement with monasteries and cafes and not much else.

2. Stage 02

   Flight Day

   Up to the Billing launch at 2,400 metres, fourteen kilometres of hairpins above the village. Flights go when the weather allows and are called each morning, which is not a formality. Twenty to thirty minutes airborne over tea gardens and a Himalayan ridge, landing back in the village.

3. Stage 03

   The Return

   Sherab Ling monastery in the morning, which is quieter and grander than the ones in McLeod Ganj, then a cafe brunch and the bus home. Two nights in Asia's paragliding capital, with the flight itself lasting less than half an hour and taking up most of the conversation afterwards.
