Riverside campsites in the Tirthan valley

Another riverside campsite is by a river in Jibhi if you want to explore riverside camping in Jibhi.
This campsite is perfect if you want to escape the crowds. It is one of the secluded campsites in Jibhi, which is away from the more commercial parts of the valley.
It is peaceful and you can spend time by the river with your friends and family.

The campsite in Sarchi, a large sprawling meadow by a deodar forest, is easily accessible. Since the space is large, you can choose where to pitch the tent. Sarchi is at 2700m, so it is cool even in summer. It is a good place for forest bathing. You can go for a walk in the forest or hike to other meadows nearby.
