1 Paro to Haa via Chele La Pass (3,988m)
Drive from Paro up to Chele La, the highest motorable pass in Bhutan, draped in thousands of prayer flags. On clear days you can see Jumolhari and Jichu Drake. Descend into the secretive Haa Valley — open to tourists only since 2002.
2 Twin Temples & Village Walks
Morning visit to Lhakhang Karp (White Temple) and Lhakhang Narp (Black Temple), twin 7th-century monasteries said to have been built in a single night. Afternoon walk through Haa village, past traditional stone houses and buckwheat fields, with a home-cooked lunch in a local household.
3 Haa Valley Morning & Return to Paro
Easy morning walk along the Haa Chhu river. Visit Haa Dzong before the return drive to Paro over the Chele La, stopping for a final look at the peaks.
