Itinerary
The second day of the trek starts with a climb for about an hour, followed by a gradual ascent. The less-traveled route takes you amidst the thick alpine forest and dwarf rhododendron trees. One may encounter yaks and yak herders around the campsite.
This is the 3rd day of our Druk Path Trek, where the trail follows the ridge. On a clear day, the awe-inspiring vistas of the mountains and valley look mesmerizing. Our campsite is close to the Jimilang Tsho Lake, which is better known for its giant-sized trout.
Today is your 4th day of our trek. Today, we will take you through dwarf rhododendron trees and Janet’s Lake. One may come across some yak herder’s camps where you will have the opportunity to capture the best shots in the travel genre. Like yesterday, the campsite will be close to Simkotra Tsho Lake.
As in previous days, the 5th day of the trek commences with a gradual ascent. If the weather allows, we will have a spectacular view of Mount Gangkar Puensum, the highest mountain of Bhutan, and other mountains. From here, the trek proceeds downhill to Phadjoding for a night halt. The camping site is above Phadjoding.
After undergoing the Phadjoding monastery, the trek expands to Thimphu (Mothitang), all the way downstairs through a forested area, dominated by blue pine forest. The walk, with a leisurely pace, takes about three hours. (Distance four to five kms, three hours, 1,130 m descent).
After having an early breakfast, you will be transferred to the airport for departure. As today is the last as well as the 7th day, you will bid farewell to the Himalayan Kingdom. Okay! See you again in Bhutan.
