There is very
little tourist traffic on the pristine trekking
routes in Bhutan. This is primarily a positive
off shot of the Bhutanese Government’s policulimiting
tourist to four thousand a year. Naturally one
has the pleasant sensation of breaking fresh ground
on treks in Bhutan.
The Chomolhari trek follows the
crystal clear trout rich upstream trail of Paro
Chulalong the verdant Rhododendron canopied forest
and salubrious green alpine meadows. Mt. Chomolhari,
having one of the most beautiful peaks in East
Himalayas, stands at a magnificent 7300 meters
with age old frontier forts and sprawling yak
pastures in its foreground a truly rewarding sight
for determined trekkers. In the course if the
trek, one will have sojourned through several
places rich in history in Paro, Thimphu and Punkha
valley.
