Description of the tour

Tour itinerary: Paro → Thimphu → Paro

Nestled in Bhutan's pristine surroundings, the Dagala Trek provides a captivating trek through the country's stunning valleys and high-altitude meadows. This 4- to 6-day trip, often called the Dagala Thousand Lakes Trek, starts in the charming town of Genekha. Hikers cross rocky mountain passes to get breathtaking views of lowlands and high peaks. Trekking season brings a riot of hues to the green meadows and alpine lakes that make up the trek's diversified environment, which is well-known. As the trail winds through varying altitudes, from charming villages to high mountain passes, trekkers are treated to a kaleidoscope of Bhutanese landscapes. It's imperative to acclimate to the altitude, and while some trekkers venture independently, hiring a local guide can enhance the experience by providing cultural insights and ensuring safety. With its blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and physical challenge, the Dagala Trek stands as a testament to Bhutan's unique and captivating trekking experiences. A fascinating element to the Dagala Trek is the opportunity to see a variety of bird species and blue sheep, which adds to the experience of seeing wildlife beyond only lakes. Campsites close to the tranquil lakes provide quiet times to reflect under the skies without interference from artificial lights. A well-guided walk is vital since the weather in these high altitudes can be unpredictable, with bright mornings quickly giving way to misty afternoons. The clear, warm periods between April and June and September and October are the best seasons to embark on this expedition.
