This trip
is a combination of two treks, in regions that are totally
different yet attractive in their own ways.
The first is to the recently opened Ha Valley in Bhutan.
Outsiders were not permitted here till the ealy 2000. This
walk takes you along the ridges around the Ha Valley where
the only people you are likely to see are Yak hearders and
where you walk through high valleys and lakes that border
Sikkim and Tibet.
The next trek is from Darjeeling (a fascinating destination
on its own), where you walk through villages and forests
of rhododendron along the Singlila ridge with stunning views
of the world's highest mountains including Mt. Everest and
Kangchenjunga. After our trek, we plan to stay in a tea
plantation to experience a unique lifestyle. However, as
the bungalow we use is small it will come on a first come
first serve basis.
To ensure this unique experience, do book early.
