Jele Dzong Hike
Jele Dzong Hike: This hike is about a 2 to 3-hour hike to this Dzong through pristine forests and valleys traversed by yak herders. Strategically located on a ridge, Jele Dzong is a small fortress built several hundred years ago to cater to travelers between Paro and Thimphu.
The impressive main Lhakhang contains a large statue of Sakyamuni almost 4m high. One can only wonder what kinds of mischief the resident monks must have perpetrated to warrant banishment to such a high and isolated monastery!
Difficulty Level: Moderate
Walking time: 2 – 3 hrs
