Why Choose the Soi Yaksa Trek

The transcendental valley of Soi Yaksa is uncovered on the Soi Yaksa Trek, which is hidden in between the hills and mountains of the mystical country of Bhutan. This hike is also known by a several other names, including the Yaksa Trek, the Jumolhari Trek II, and the Jumolhari Loop.

The trek starts with a visit to Haa Valley, continues on to Jangothang and into the laps of Jumolhari mountain, then continues on to Soi Yaksa Valley after crossing the Bonte La pass, and finally concludes in Thimphu. Some areas of the walk, such Haa Valley and Soi Yaksa, do not see a significant number of tourists, and as a result, the path through these areas is peaceful and unbroken. When you hear the birds chirping near Jangothang, feel the cool and noisy wind blowing at the height of Bonte La early in the morning, and grasp the serenity of the Tsho Phu lakes, you will certainly be able to appreciate the beauty of nature.

The first day of our Soi Yaksa Trek consists of an acclimatization climb to the well-known Taktsang Monastery, which takes place on the day after your arrival in the area. You'll be off to a good start after you reach an altitude of 3120 meters, which is reached after climbing approximately 4200 steps to reach the Tiger's Nest (Taktsang Monastery).

After passing the Bonte La pass (4890 m), which is the highest point of the walk, the path continues on through numerous magnificent mountains, rocky cliffs, wildflower meadows, and lakes, with frequent ascents and descents, until we reach our ultimate target, which is the Soi Yaksa Valley (3800 m).

If all you want to do is see Mount Jumolhari and Jichu Drake from afar without having to trudge your way up to Lingzhi and endure the high altitude, then the Soi Yaksa Trek is the one for you.

Best Season for Soi Yaksa Trek

The best time to go trekking in Bhutan is in the spring, from March to May, when the country's valleys are at their most colorful and beautiful. In Bhutan, surrounded by nature and all of its beautiful offspring, you are sure to have a great time and take home a memory you will remember for the rest of your life. Because it rains a lot from June to August, those months are called "shoulder season." This is because hiking and other outdoor activities are less fun when it rains.

In the fall, on the other hand, it's the holiday season, and it might be hard to get a travel permit and a good hotel room. There will also be a lot of tourists on the trails, so even though it's one of the best times to go, these are things to think about. Summer is the low season for tourism, when not as many people come to visit.
