Trip Overview
Chomolhari trek is quite challenging and an excellent option for strong walkers. The Chomolhari trekking begins from Paro and makes a destination to the yak herders in the northern Bhutan and finally to the base of Mount Chomolhari that is 7,360 meters / 24,150 ft high. Bhutanese regard this mountain as the "holiest mountain". The trek then catches the path on to remote Lingshi Dzong, which once guarded the frontier with Tibet. This treks offers fascinating/fabulous views of the mountains including Chomolhari, Jitchu Drake and Tsheringkhang mountains besides stunning Himalayan scenery and exceptional flora & fauna. You will encounter many yak-herders with their hairy wards and their camps but few.
