The trail consists of buddhist Stupa on its way. Beautiful trail for Sunday warriors. Note: the route we took was too thorny; proceed with caution.

Impressive one👍👍
Thanks for this. I had a question. It seems that one can climb up the hill's stupa facing side directly without going around. But it requires you to regularly use both hands and feet for balance while climbing loose rock.
How would you compare this path taking you directly uphill to the one you showed on the map? Did you have to scramble much in getting up onto the summit of the hill?
Many thanks again.
Thanks for reaching out. I haven't done that route so can't say much. However, I would not suggest anyone doing this or trails adjacent to Shah Allah Dita to Kot Jandaan due to security issues in the area. There have been multiple incidents of armed robbery.
