Sakteng Village
Sakteng Village – Sakteng is an isolates valley of Brokpas, located North of Merak in Trashi Gang. Sakteng literally means bamboo field. Sakteng stands out as a distinct attraction in Bhutan. It offers unique semi nomadic lifestyle and culture. To get to Sakteng, one needs to drive for approx 1.5 hrs and trek for 2 days. The nearby Sakteng Wildlife Sanctuary is named after it. The Sanctuary is home to people of isolated nomadic tribes. It is characterized by thick carpets of rhododendrons, and in its habitat roam snow leopards, red pandas, Himalayan black bear, barking deer, Himalayan red fox, the hoary-bellied Himalayan squirrel and even the mythical Yeti (or the “Abominable Snowman”). Sakteng is virtually untouched by development.
