Epic Cross Country Paragliding — Bir to Manali, Dharamshala & Palampur
Leave one town. Land in another. Cross the Himalayas under your own wing.
Description:
These are not experiences. These are journeys.
Our epic cross-country flights take you from Bir and land you in a completely different town — Palampur, Dharamshala, or Manali — crossing valleys, soaring above high ridges, and navigating the Himalayan landscape the way only a paraglider can.
The Bir to Manali flight is the crown jewel — 55 km, 3+ hours, crossing the snow-capped peaks of the Dhauladhar and Pir Panjal Range, reaching altitudes above 5,000 metres.
Our pilot holds a 229 km cross-country record and 15 years of Himalayan flying experience. These flights are in exceptionally capable hands.
These flights are one-way. Return transport must be arranged separately.
