Kellar valley

Kellar valley is located in Bhalla tehsil. It is a bowl-shaped valley with the Himalayas surrounding it on all sides, and its borders are with Bani-Basohli on the south, Bhaderwah on the east, Marmat, and Sudhmahadev on the west. The middle Himalayan ranges, also known locally as the Devshetra, Chander, and Taaliyan Mountains, guard the valley. The major Dhars in these mountains include Seoj Dhar, Bhaihal Dhar, and Kemel Dhar. These Dhars are surrounded by a thick surface of green meadows and tall Sal, Deodar, and spruce trees. These Dhars are the origin of several significant rivers in the Jammu region, including Tawi and Ujh.[4]
