Itinerary
Start your day with a thrilling transfer to Phobjikha,
located at an altitude of 3,000m! Here, you will have the chance to visit the
majestic Gangtey Gonpa, a temple that is the seat of Ngyingmapa Buddhism, one
of the religious sects in Bhutan. This incredible temple was constructed in
1613 by Pema Thinley, the first Gangtey Trulku and grandson of Pema Lingpa.
After exploring this spiritual site, take a stroll around the beautiful valley
of Phobjikha. This stunning place serves as the winter habitat for endangered
black-necked cranes, which migrate from Tibet between November and February to
escape the harsh winter. As you travel to Gangtey, you will be enchanted by the
dense forests of oak and rhododendron trees, and the picturesque scenery.
Spend the night in Phobjikha/Gangtey and prepare for more
exciting adventures!
This morning, we will have a light hike on Gangtey
Nature Trail (4km, 1.5-2hours) that start from Gangtey
Monastery(3030m) and ends in Khewang Lhakhang(2850m). It is the most beautiful
and shortest of the existing nature trails in Bhutan. You can immerse
yourselves in the beauty of the Phobjikha Valley(2840m) with farmhouses, dense
pine forests, rhododendron forests, and bamboo plants on foot.
After the hiking, we will drive back to Paro from Gangtey
(170km, about 4.5h).
After Breakfast drives back to Paro International Airport. Our team will help you with exit formalities and then bid you farewell.
