This trek is the old walking route from Thimphu to Punakha and passes through some of the beautiful villages. Taking the trekkers through thick forests, villages and rice fields it exposes great views of other small rural villages and monasteries including Phajoding Monastery lying just above Thimphu and Talo Monastery.
The best seasons for this trek are March to June and September to December. But due to the low altitudes, the trek is possible throughout the whole winter.
