Chehni kothi / traditional fort is located in Jibhi Valley near Tirthan Valley in Kullu and made of stone and wood. It is built on an earthquake-prone area without concrete or steel which make this more impressive.

Chehni kothi architecture

The tower built by stuffing the stones between two layers of wood and the beams of the Wood are crossing each other creating a similar architecture of the nearby traditional houses. 

Chehni kothi or traditional fort survived a devastating earthquake in 1905 when tens and thousands of people died.

Chehni kothi trek

There is no direct road reaching to Chehni Kothi. So, tourists need to do the hike from Bihar village and the gentle slope will not hamper much to reach the tower. The picturesque scenic beauty makes the journey memorable and enjoyable.
