Bhutan Birding Tour from West to East

  • Bhutan Birding Tour from West to East

Overview

Fly to Paro in the morning. After clearing immigration we will drive through the wide Paro Valley. The Paro Valley is relatively dry. Blue pines grow on the slopes, but most of the valley floor is cultivated with rice paddies, which are utilized for wheat during wintertime.

Many finches feed on wheat grains. The main attraction is the Pachu riverbed north of the town .You can spot Ibisbills, and both Common Kingfisher, Crested Kingfisher and some accentors among the rocks and bushes.

It is worthwhile to visit the forests near the ruins of Drukgyal Dzong. We can see all the birds encountered in the Paro Valley except the Ibisbill, so it would be worth to visit a few cultural sites such as the hanging temple of Taktsang or do a walk 3 hours up to the Tigers Nest. Stay over night at hotel.
