Hiking

When climbing the 'Paro Taktsang Trail' you can enjoy the view of the 'Paro Chhu' valley at several points.

Hiking

Start early enough, the hike is particularly beautiful at sunrise. It gets very warm from 11am (we were there in early September). Keep to your rhythm on the climb and take plenty of water with you (there is a restaurant halfway). The climb can be easily completed in about two hours. The view is indescribable and unforgettable.

Hiking

Simply wonderful, but save it for the end of the trip. As a highlight and also for acclimatization
