Travel tips
- Carry sufficient cash as ATMs in Jibhi are unreliable and many local homestays do not accept digital payments.
- Hire a local taxi for the trip to Jalori Pass, as the mountain roads are narrow and require experienced drivers.
- Keep a power bank handy since remote areas in the Tirthan Valley can experience intermittent electricity supply.
- Dress in layers to easily adjust to the temperature shifts between the sunny afternoons and chilly evenings.
