Itinerary
- The adventure begins as you meet our spirited trip captain and fellow explorers in Delhi. Our common meeting points are conveniently located to ensure a smooth and hassle-free onboarding. With excitement in the air, we'll hit the road by 9 PM.
- Settle into the cosy Tempo Traveller, and let the rhythmic hum of the road lull you into a dreamy state as we drive away from the bustling city toward the serenity of the mountains. Sleep, dream, play games or chat with new friends—the journey is as much a part of the adventure as the destination.
- As the first light of dawn paints the mountains, we arrive at our base point tucked away in nature’s lap. Breathe in the crisp Himalayan air, freshen up, and recharge with a wholesome breakfast before the day unfolds.
- Our journey to Parashar Lake takes us through enchanting forest trails, serene streams, and remote villages where life moves at its own peaceful pace. Along the way, soak in breathtaking panoramic views of the Dhauladhar, Pir Panjal, and Kinnaur ranges stretching endlessly across the horizon.
- Soon, we reach the mesmerizing Parashar Lake—a pristine, mirror-like water body surrounded by snow-clad peaks. Visit the ancient temple dedicated to Sage Parashar, an architectural gem steeped in legends and timeless charm.
- A short and easy walk leads us to our scenic campsite overlooking the lake. Settle into your tents, enjoy some evening snacks, and let the surreal surroundings sink in.
- As night falls, gather around a warm bonfire under a sky full of stars. Share stories, laughter, and unforgettable moments with your fellow travelers—the mountains listening quietly as memories are made.
- Wake up to a magical Himalayan morning at Parashar Lake as the first rays of sunlight paint the snow-capped peaks in shades of gold and pink. After soaking in the views and enjoying a wholesome breakfast, we bid farewell to this serene paradise and begin our scenic drive towards Bir.
- The journey itself is a visual delight—winding roads, lush valleys, and postcard-worthy landscapes at every turn. We’ll stop for lunch en route, relishing local flavours and stretching our legs before the next adventure.
- Upon reaching Bir, it’s time to lace up your shoes for an exciting hike to the hidden Bir Waterfall. Surrounded by forest trails and the soothing sound of flowing water, this short trek is refreshing and rewarding—perfect for nature lovers and explorers alike.
- After the hike, check in to our luxurious camps where rustic charm meets comfort. Relax, explore the surroundings, or simply unwind amidst nature.
- As evening sets in, gather around a warm bonfire with your fellow travellers. Enjoy a delicious dinner, share stories, laugh freely, and let the mountain vibes sink in. Another unforgettable day ends under a sky full of stars.
- Today, you’ll spread your wings! After a light breakfast, we’ll drive to Billing—the take-off point for your paragliding adventure. Feel the rush of adrenaline as you glide through the sky, the world below a patchwork of fields, forests, and distant mountains.
- Once your feet are back on solid ground, we’ll head to one of Bir’s cosy cafes for lunch. Savour the flavours, sip on something warm and bask in the laid-back vibe of this quaint town.
- By 3:00 PM, it’s time to say goodbye to Bir and start our journey back to Delhi. As we drive through the changing landscapes, let the memories of the past few days replay in your mind—each moment a treasure, each memory a story waiting to be told.
- The next day early morning arrival in Delhi, but with a heart full of memories, new friendships, and stories that’ll last a lifetime.
- People coming from other cities, and flying back to their cities from Delhi, please select a flight that departs past 10 AM from Delhi, because we don’t want anyone to miss their flight just in case there is any delay because of a roadblock.

★★★★★“I went on Prashar Lake and Bir Billing trip along with 15 more people during New Year 2023. The trip was very nicely organized by the OWF team—every arrangement was spot on. Initially, most of us were strangers, but by the end of the trip everyone bonded really well. The captains were extremely kind and considerate, ensuring each member had a memorable experience. Looking forward to many more trips with OWF Trips.”
