Druk Path Trek connects the Paro Valley and Thimphu
Valley which allows the travelers to enjoy the daily lives of friendly
Bhutanese people by visiting villages, temples, monasteries, and gigantic
fortresses. It is one of the shortest beautiful treks in Bhutan goes through
ancient trade route and cross high mountain passes. It gives us chance to meet
people, enjoy the pristine forest with rare glimpse of wildlife and observe the
ancient old traditions of arts and crafts. We will be travelling through the
less frequent trails of Bhutan.
Our
journey starts from Paro Valley where our flight from Kathmandu will land. We
spent one and half day sightseeing around the Paro valley and a full day
excursion to the Tiger’s Nest locally known as Taktsang Gompa. This incredible
monastery clings to the edge of a sheer rock cliff that plunges 900 meters into
the valley below. We then start our short five days trek, which leads
from Paro to Thimphu, or vice versa, crossing the chain of mountains. Although
there is little settlement on this route, there are wonderful lakes teeming
with fish and the area is famous for its spectacular rhododendron forests,
which bloom in May. In the clear weather of late autumn and winter there are
views across to the Himalayas. We finally arrive into the lush valley of
Thimphu the Capital city. After touring through this tiny no traffic
light Capital city, we will return to Paro and take our flight back home with
beautiful memories of this Living Museum.
During Bhutan Druk Path Trek, we see finest views of Mountain Jumolhari, Jichu Drake peak and highest mountain of Bhutan, Gangkhar Puensum (7,570 m). We trek through dense forest of Rhododendron, Alpine Yak Pastures and witness high altitude lakes and also cross Himalayan passes of Simthoka Tso (4,110 m) and Phume La Pass (4,210 m). We stay at lodges in Paro and Thimphu and Fully Organized Tented Camp during the whole trek. Our highly experienced kitchen members prepare fresh meals during the trek.
