Latest Updates

Just 2 km before Chalal Bridge, take the forest trail left — it leads to a quiet riverside patch with pine trees and natural stone seats.
Ideal for morning coffee or peaceful reading with river sound in the background ☕🌲
Locals call it “Silent Point”, and it’s usually empty even in peak season!

The road from Aut to Jibhi is open and in good condition this week!
A few small patches near Banjar are under repair, so drive slow around bends.
Best time to start from Aut is early morning to avoid local traffic and fog.
Perfect weather now — green hills, light mist, and zero crowd! 🌤️
