Jirang Highlands
Sitting right at Jirang itself in Gajapati district, the highlands need no long drive — just a moderate road to reach the upper terrain. October through March is the comfortable window, when the hill landscape opens up for panoramic views and an easy hike that works for most fitness levels. Sunrise and sunset both reward those who time the visit well. Parking is on hand, and there was no entry fee at last update.
