GANKAR-PUN-SUM TREK |
|
![]() This trek offers pure adventure. One of the highlights is crossing a pass at more than 5,000mts. (17,300ft), near walls of ice-sheeted rocks. Experience the purity of the air and the crystal-clear view of mt. Gangkar Punsum (24,900ft). Gangkar Punsum means "three siblings" and is the highest unclimbed peak in the world. The mere sight of the numerous saw-toothed ridgelines has kept explorers at bay and only the adventure-seekers venture near this rarely explored mountain. This scared mountain is the subject of many a legend. Blessed by Guru Rimpoche, it is a pilgrimage site for Buddhists. Many of the plants that grow above 4500mts have medicinal value and are widely used in oriental pharmacy. Some are very rare. The breath-taking views, crystal-clear streams, sightings of rare, legendary animals and the scent of the plants give the impression of being in the realm of an extraordinary world. This is the particular atmosphere of the grand, natural world of the Himalayas. This trekking tour offers you everything - a demanding trek with stunning mountain views, immersion in the countryside, and cultural sightseeing in the major towns of Bhutan. You will visit Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Wangdi, Trongsa, and Bumthang. The images of the solitary houses on hills, the noble forts blessed by Buddhism, the fluttering prayer flags everywhere, the smiling people and the majestic mountains will stay in your mind for years to come..
