After two hours on the bus, I was dropped off at Naya Pul, or "New Bridge", the start of the Jomsom Trek. I wasn't too sure which path was the trail, but I read that there was a 1000 m climb, so I headed up a trail on the mountain to the left. After an hour and a half, I reached the top, and asked the locals for directions to the supposed next town. They shook their heads and pointed down in the valley. Oops! Anyways, I still managed to get to the right place (Tikedungha, four hours from Naya Pul) despite the little detour.
