The Tsaluna Trek is a moderate, five-day trek. This trek is popular with those who wish to do a shorter version of the Druk Path trek, and also features an in-depth cultural tour of the Bhutan’s spiritual heartland, the central Bumthang Valley. The trek offers beautiful views as you cross the chain of mountains that separate the Paro and Thimphu valleys. This route is also famous for its spectacular rhododendron forests and wonderful high altitude lakes teeming with fish. There will be a number of temples and dzongs to visit on the way, and in the clear weather of late autumn and winter there are great views of the Himalayas.
You will also visit the many sacred sites of Paro, Thimphu and Punakha in the west before continuing onto the central districts of Trongsa, the birthplace of monarchy, and the Bumthang Valley, Bhutan’s spiritual heartland featuring 7th century Jambay Lhakhang and Kurje Lhakhang with its rock imprint of Guru Rimpoche.
