The main road extends northward through Upper Dir, eventually arriving at Darwaza village. At this point, the road diverges, branching off into Lamoti village. From there, it ascends toward Jandrai village via a passable but unpaved road suitable for jeeps. Beyond this point, the journey transitions to a trek, leading to Jahaz Banda.[1]
