Starting from Jibhi, a quaint village in Himachal Pradesh, I made my way to Jalori Pass, the gateway to the Raghupur Fort trek. The drive itself was a visual treat, with the Tirthan River accompanying me through lush deodar forests

The trek from Jalori Pass to Raghupur Fort spans approximately 3 kilometers and is considered moderately challenging. The trail meanders through dense oak and rhododendron forests, offering glimpses of the rich Himalayan flora. The iQOO 12's camera adeptly captured the vibrant hues and intricate details of the surroundings.

After about 90 minutes of trekking, I reached the remnants of Raghupur Fort. Although only a few walls stand today, the site offers a 360-degree view that stretches as far as the Dhauladhar ranges. The sense of history combined with the natural beauty made the summit truly special
