Bhutan

Chukha

Bhutan's hydropower heartland along the road between Phuentsholing and Thimphu, with steep forested gorges. Chukha lies in southern Bhutan, a warmer, lower-lying region of forest, farmland and border towns. Highlights include Chukha Dzong, Chukha Hydropower Project and Wangchulo Dzong. A visit here is easiest with a local guide, who can explain what you are seeing, open doors that are hard to find alone and handle the permits Bhutan requires. We include Chukha in custom itineraries on request. Every journey is built around a licensed guide, a private vehicle and carefully chosen hotels or homestays — tell us your dates and interests and we will plan Chukha into a trip that fits.
