How to reach bir billing
Toy train is one of the best experience you should take once in a lifetime it passed through the beautiful mountains and lush greenery the journey last around 12 hours from pathankot to joginder nagar railway station. From Joginder Nagar to bir is just 14.3km. There is no direct flight to bir billing you can drive by yourself if you know how to drive on mountains i suggest to take local driver.
I am attaching small video of my morning walk in bir just have a look.
So have you ever been to this beautiful place or anywhere in Himachal kindly share your thoughts in the comment box.
Thank you.
