Druk Path Trek 

Druk Path Trek is one of the most popular treks in Bhutan. This Druk Path trek is one of the shortest, moderate grade trek (6 day trek), which leads from Paro to Thimphu or vice versa, crossing the chain of mountains that separates the two valleys. Although the route is sparsely inhabited, there are wonderful lakes teeming with fish and the area is famous for its spectacular rhododendron forests, which bloom in May. In the clear weather of late autumn and winter there are great views of the Himalayas. One of the interesting features of this trek is the presence of beautiful lakes enroots teeming with fish. Also this area is particularly famous for spectacular rhododendron forests which run riot in the month of May.
