Break away from the monotony of your Daily Routine and have a date with nature at one of the unspoilt locales of Kangra Valley: the exotic Himalayan abode - BIR. Transport yourself to a world where time stands still. Surrender to the sleepy hamlet of BIR, where action, adventure and relaxation make a heady mix.

Activities

Touch the clouds
Beyond the charms of Bir, 14 kilometers away, is Billing, a half day trip. Perched at an elevation of 8540 feet, this is famous worldwide as one of the best hang gliding sites. At Billing the desire to fly can be overpowering! The stunning view of the Kangra valley from Billing is also breath taking.

Angle for Fish
Fifty Km away from Bir is Barot on the Banks of the Uhl River and teeming with trout. You can spend an action packed day there trying your hand at angling and fishing.

Take a Trek
From the camp
you can go on soft treks through uneven walkways. The treks are not a challenge to your physical prowess, but may prove to be a subtle inspiration for you to write lyrical poetry!

-Other activities like Croquet, Target Shooting, Archery, Darts are available. -Bonfire and Bar-be-Que are also a part of the camp activities.
