Jibhi is one of the hidden gems of Himachal. Nestled in the Banjar Valley of Himachal Pradesh, it is located at a distance of approximately 100 kilometers from Manali and 70 kilometers from Mandi. The place is best known for its natural beauty and serves as a base to explore the rest of Banjar and Tirthan Valleys. The Jibhi Waterfall, The trek to Jalori Pass, and The pristine Serolsar lake are all experiences that one must have when in Himachal. Since it is a completely off-beat destination, it allows travelers to unplug and experience the true essence of peace in the Himalayas which is why Jibhi is an essential part of this Himachal explorer edition
Nestled on the banks of the Parvati River, Kasol is a Himalayan hamlet that offers stunning views of snow-capped peaks, sparkling rivers, vibrant culture, Israeli cuisine, and more. It is especially popular among backpackers and also acts as a basecamp for treks like Kheerganga, Malana, Grahan, etc. Not adding Kasol to the itinerary of this Himachal explorer edition would make travelers lose out on an integral experience that Himachal has to offer.
