Old Route Hike
Old Route Hike: Before the construction of the east-west highway the Trongsa Dzong was the “gateway” to western, eastern and southern Bhutan. The so called “old route” was a trail leading down from the “viewpoint” of the Trongsa Dzong to the river Mangde Chu and from thereafter crossing the river via a Ba Zam (traditional wooden bridge) up the Trongsa Dzong. The bridge was once washed away by the river, but it was rebuilt to improve the existing trail. The trail provides a shortcut for the locals living in the area and a nice day hike for tourists.
Difficulty Level: Moderate
Walking time: 1.5-2.5 hrs
Attraction: Tronsga view, traditional wooden bridge & Trongsa Dzong
