About the Jibhi Tirthan Valley Trip
Jibhi is what people picture when they say they want a quiet Himachal — wooden houses with slate roofs, a trout stream running through the village, and no traffic to speak of. Tirthan Valley next door is the buffer zone of the Great Himalayan National Park.
The trek is Raghupur Fort: up from Jalori Pass through oak and deodar to a ruined hill fort on a grassy ridge, with the Himalayan ranges open across the horizon. Two nights in Jibhi, Delhi to Delhi, and the quietest departure we run.
