Chomolhari
Trek
| Our Trip begins in
Nepal with opportunities to explore the old bazaars and
some of the oldest monuments in the country. In comparison
to Nepal, there are exceptionally very little movements
in terms of trekking within major parts of Bhutan. The
Chomolhari trek follows the crystal clear trout rich upstream
trail of Paro Chu along the verdant rhododendron forests
and salubrious green alpine meadows. |
 |
Mt. Chomolhari - one of the most beautiful peaks in the eastern
Himalaya that stands at 7300 m. is visible and clear through
out the trail. The course of the trek will cover some prominent
places rich in history between Paro, Thimpu and Punakha Valley.
