The ideal time to visit the Billing Takeoff Site in Bir Billing, Himachal Pradesh, is from late September to early November. During these months, the weather conditions are perfect for paragliding, offering clear blue skies and favorable thermal and wind conditions. This period is also the season for the annual paragliding pre-World Cup, which sees pilots from across the globe, turning Bir Billing into a vibrant hub of culture and adventure sports. The temperature range is comfortable, neither too cold nor too warm, and the visibility for flights is excellent, making it conducive for both novices and experienced paragliders to enjoy the thrill of flying.
If you can't make it during the autumn, the secondary season from late February to early June is also a good time for paragliding adventures, with the pre-monsoon season creating dynamic conditions for longer flights. Although these conditions might be more challenging, they can be a perfect fit for experienced paragliders seeking thrilling and prolonged flights. However, it's notable that during the summer months, the afternoons can get quite warm, and it's better to schedule flights for the morning or late afternoon. It's important for visitors to avoid the monsoon season, from July to mid-September, as heavy rainfall makes paragliding unsafe and, as a result, the site is generally closed for such activities.
