Black Mountain Trekking

The Black Mountain range nearly divides the country in two, running from north at the Tibetan border to the south, rich in wild life. The trail goes through high valleys of Gogona and Khotakha. The big monastery of Pema Lingpa at Gangtey Gompa and small beautiful active Gompa at Gogona are worth visiting. The route follows rich rhododendron forest and typical villages.
