Gangtey Valley
Trek is for average walkers and gives you an opportunity to visit the isolated valleys of Gangtey Gompa/Phobjikha,
Gogona and Kothoka. Gangtey Valley Trek leaves the valley
of Gangtey at 2,830 meters and leads south, then west through
the meadows and fields. It then climbs through a mixed forest
of juniper, bamboo, rhododendron, magnolia, firs, oaks, spruce,
dwarf rhododendrons, miniature azaleas & cypress. The
trail is rough, rocky and weaves through trees where pack
animals have created deep muddy furrows.Gogona is a beautiful
hilltop site overlooking a long valley. A 30-minute walk beyond
Gogona is a hamlet where you may find homemade ara [local
drink]. The women here weave blankets and speak a different
dialect called Bjop-kha [language of the nomads].
