Gangtey Gogona Bhutan Trekking
trekking in bhutan

 

This is a beautiful trek and one of the few that offers you the experience of the glacial valleys in Bhutan. It is also the chosen home of rare Black Necked Cranes which migrate here in winter from the Tibetan plateau.

Gantey is one of the most beautiful places in Bhutan and Gangtey Gonpa is the only Nyingmapa monastery on the western side of the black mountains.

For the naturalist flora and fauna are to be found in abundance in a mountain eco-system whose balance has remained undisturbed by the Bhutanese people's Buddhist way of life.

This trek visits the villages of Gogona and Khotokha, passing through meadows, fields, forests of Juniper, magnolia and rhododendrons.

This is Bhutan's finest low-level trek, passing majestic snow-capped mountains, protected valleys, and fields of rhododendron, juniper, and bamboo.
