Beautiful Laya/Gasa Trek |
This route takes one upstream
along the Paro Chu and the ancient caravan route to
Tibet, Through the Seo Valley deep into the shadows
of Mt. Chomolari 7314m, Mt. Jitchu Drake 7000m and
over Nele La Pass 4250m into Lingshi Valley. The inhabitants
of these tow valleys are nomads subsisting almost
entirely on the produce and products of sheep and
yaks. The many lakes in Seo Valley are every angler’s
wildest dream come true. At Lingshi is picturesque
remnant of a once migltly border fortress is now the
residences of the valley administrator. From his hill
a day's trek is all it takdes to cross over the plateau
of Tibet.
Heading East over the 3
high passes of Gobuala 4650m, jarila 4600m and Shinjela
4900m lays the valley of Laya. Herds of the rare Tarkin
can be seen enroute to Tashi Jathang valley. Laya
lies in the Masakhang mountain region which is the
source of the Mo Chu flowing through Punakha. The
inhabitants of Laya s an ethnic group are quite different
form the rest of the Bhutanese people. Like the people
so Seo and Lingshi they too are nomads. Along the
way to Punakha, the old capital lays historic Gasa
fort and the famous popular hot sping in Gasa.
