Places To Visit In Shojha
Jalori Pass
Nestled in the peaks of northern Himalayas lies the Jalori mountain pass, located between the districts of Kullu and Shimla. Perhaps one would recognise it better as the snow-covered summit in the Bollywood film "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani", where actors Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone are seen trekking through the mountainside. The pass opens in the second week of March and shuts down in December due to snowfall.
Situated at a height of 10,800 feet above sea level, Jalori Pass is located at a distance of 5 kilometres from Shoja. The leading road is narrow and extremely steep, not to mention uneven and full of potholes, making it a bumpy ride and sometimes it becomes difficult to drive the car even in first gear. Vehicles are prone to slipping due to frost during the winter, even after machines have swept away the snow.
The Jalori Pass Trek that starts from here is a moderate level trek seated amidst vast coniferous forests, and can be best covered between the seasons of mid-June to mid-October when traversing through the snow is an easy feat. The path leads to the nearby Serolsar Lake and 'Budhi Naagin' temple.

Raghupur Fort
Raghupur Fort is a historic place which is believed to be built by Mandi rulers, to protect themselves from the invasion. Today, nothing much is left of it except the outer portion of the walls.
However, what makes visiting this fort more fun is the way to reach it. A walk or rather a climb of 3 Kms from Jalori Pass, the path gets steeper during last kilometer. The way is covered with lush green oaks and rhododendrons with great Himalayas in backdrop. A small pond is present within the premises of the fort.
