Jibhi & Jalori Pass Trek

Jibhi is one of Himachal Pradesh’s quieter valleys, tucked away in the Banjar sub-division and still relatively untouched by mass tourism, and this 4-day, 3-night tour is built around its slower pace — traditional wooden architecture, waterfalls, pine forests and a genuine sense of calm, alongside a trek up to Jalori Pass.

After arriving in Jibhi on Day 1 and settling into a local homestay, Day 2 is spent on a trek to Jalori Pass, one of the more accessible high-altitude passes in the region, and onward to Serolsar Lake, a small, forest-fringed lake considered sacred by nearby villages. The walk through dense pine and oak forest to reach the lake is one of the trip’s highlights, and the pass itself opens up wide views over the surrounding Seraj valley.

Day 3 moves to the Tirthan Valley, running along the Tirthan River, known for its clear water and reputation as one of the better trout-fishing spots in Himachal Pradesh. The day is spent at a relaxed pace, taking in the river, its old wooden bridges and the surrounding villages, with time for fishing if you’d like to try it.

The package includes homestay accommodation, all meals, the Jalori Pass trek, the Serolsar Lake walk and a local guide throughout. Transport to Jibhi itself is not included and needs to be arranged separately, and personal expenses are also excluded. Suitable for travellers aged 10 and above, with groups of up to 10, this is a good option for anyone who wants a quieter, homestay-based alternative to the more crowded parts of Himachal Pradesh, with a manageable trek and a river valley included. Day 4 is kept free for departure.
