People say that the best things are often kept veiled in some corner so that no one can touch them. One of such places given to us by nature is Himachal Pradesh’s secret paradise Jibhi. Lying in the lush green district of Kullu, Jibhi is situated in the Banjar Valley where you can enjoy a vacation in the serenity of the Tirthan river. Not many people know about this small town in Banjar and therefore, we are unaware of what can be done here.

Here are a few things that you can do in the offbeat destination of Jibhi and spend quality time with your loved ones.

Trekking Trails

Jibhi is a place known for its amazing trekking locations. Since it is not a mainstream tourist area, you must mostly trek to commute from one place to another. However, the major treks that one must cover here start from Jalori Pass. The first is Serolsar Lake which is 5 km long and the other one is Raghupur Fort which is 3 km long. Both are accompanied by scenic views.

Savoury Siddu

River Tirthan which flows along Jibhi, enhances the beauty of this valley immensely. The river flowers from between rigid rocks and stones and makes up for one of the most beautiful views in Himachal Pradesh. At night it gets so quiet that you can hear the sound of the river from your hotel room.

At a distance of only 2 km from the Jibhi main market, Mini Thailand is an untouched tourist attraction on the outskirts of the town. Accounted by scenic mountainous views, River Tirthan flows beautifully and creates a picturesque location which is perfect for photo shoots.
