    If you’re aiming for a quick round trip, start from Banjar and head east on the NH5 to reach the entrance of Great Himalayan National Park. The drive takes about 30 minutes, and you can park near the viewpoint and spend roughly 90 minutes walking. After that, you can turn back toward Banjar via the same road, keeping the total round trip under three hours. If you have a bit more time, a short detour to Shringa Rishi Temple is only a 10 minute drive from the park entrance, adding about 45 minutes for the visit. Staying at Madpackers Jibhi gives you a convenient base close to the road that connects all these spots.
