Where we are

The Rustic Jibhi is in Jibhi village, in the Banjar part of the Tirthan Valley, Kullu district. Most people arrive on an overnight bus to Aut, then take a taxi or local bus up to Jibhi, about 1 to 1.5 hours.

  • From the Jibhi bus stand: we're about 400 m before it, a 5-minute walk on a flat road. Coming by taxi? Ask the driver to drop you at The Rustic Jibhi; it's on Google Maps.
  • Jibhi waterfall: about 1.5 km, a 15-minute walk.
  • Jalori Pass: around 45 minutes to an hour up the road by car.

Wi-Fi you can work on

100+ Mbps fibre with power backup, so a power cut doesn't take the internet with it. Guests work full days from the café upstairs, and long stays get a better nightly rate.

How to choose a hostel in Jibhi

Whichever hostel you pick, these are the questions worth asking before you pay.

  1. 01Read recent reviews on Google Maps, not only the booking sites, and look at what people say about cleanliness and staff.
  2. 02Ask whether the Wi-Fi has power backup if you need to work; power cuts are common in the hills.
  3. 03If you’re a woman travelling solo, check whether there’s a female-only dorm and lockers.
  4. 04Check how far the hostel is from the bus stop and the main market, especially if you arrive late.
  5. 05Ask what’s included in the price, whether taxes are extra, and what the cancellation policy is.
  6. 06Find out whether the hostel helps with taxis from Aut and with forming trek groups.
  7. 07Decide what kind of evenings you want: a social common room, or somewhere quiet to read.
