Same as the Laya Gasa trek, this route takes you
from the sub-tropical Punakha valley of only
1,300 meters, up to the high Laya region of
4,000 meters, to the high Himalayan pastureland
in the amphitheatre of stunning Mount Masa
Gang (7,200 meters), reaching the heart of Laya,
a remote region where women wear black
yak-hair costumes and esoteric, conical bamboo
hats. This trek provides for a fine taste of a
variety of landscapes, remote villages, and
grand panoramas of high Himalayan peaks,
with chances of spotting a
musk deer, blue sheep or a Himalayan bear. |
