The route: Simrol Road - take a left from Ambachandan village - Ambhajhar Mahadev temple - Kalakund trek begins.
Short trails, about 300 metres from the parking/temple area, lead to rocky viewpoints and valley vistas. The area is also a local hotspot for regional bird species.

Best time to visit July to October, when greenery peaks & seasonal streams come alive. Up next IRC’s next weekend destination would be Guru Waterfall near Rampuriya Bujrg, another serene escape for nature lovers.
