If you’re after a quick change of pace, the 20 km trek to Jalori Pass takes you past the alpine ridge and offers a high altitude view that’s hard to get from the valley floor. The pass also gives you a good stretch before the lake. For a longer day, a loop that starts at the lake, goes up to the pass, and then back through the forest of the national park gives a mix of water, high mountain scenery, and a chance to spot wildlife. If you end up back in Jibhi after the pass, the Royal Mansion in Bhuntar is a comfortable spot to unwind.
