Adventure Activities Paro

Being the city where everyone lands first, Paro has slowly climbed the ladder of tourism and is one of the most sought-after destinations of Bhutan. Not just the presence of an airport, Paro itself is a beauty to behold with green valleys, high mountains and the serene Paro Chhu or Paro River flowing through the middle. With lots of things to do in Paro, the tourists have a lot to look forward to.

Here are some of the best things to do in Paro

1. Go for adventure

The great Eastern Himalayas make trekking one of the favourite Paro Bhutan things to do. The Snowman Trek starts from Paro, leads you through Lingshi and Laya to the deeper parts of Lunana Valley. Extending for over 5.5 km, this is one of the most exciting trekking trails of Paro. Mountain biking is in vogue as well, as the biking routes take one through ancient ruins and old monasteries, or down to Bumthang passing by green rice fields and rugged terrains. Further down the Paro Chhu River, there are occasional opportunities for water rafting or kayaking as well.

2. Visit Chele La Pass

Chele La pass is the highest transportable pass of Bhutan. It connects the valley of Paro to the lesser known valley of Haa. It only takes 2 hours drive from Paro, but the drive will be completely worth it. The roadsides will often be lined with vivid Buddhist prayer flags, fluttering in the cold mountain wind. At the end of it, you will be standing at an elevation of 13000 feet, shivering in the cold but mesmerised by the lush green all around. If you are in luck, there will be thousands of red rhododendrons in bloom all-over the valley and on a clear sky day, the sacred peaks of Jhomolhari and Jitchu Drake from this pass.

3. Watch a festival dance

For someone who does not like an adventure that much, there is no need to wonder what to do in Paro. The Festival Ground hosts vivid and vibrant local festivals like the Paro Tshechu every year during March-April. If you are lucky enough to make it during the spring, you can witness the expert dancers perform to the beats of folk music and staging different mythical stories from Bhutan’s past in their bright, colourful and ornate dresses.

4. Visit Paro Weekend Market and Craft Market

There is a quaint and rustic feeling in shopping form the weekend market of Paro. It is not very large or sophisticated. But one can find the best of farm-fresh products here, like authentic Bhutanese Tsirang honey. In the craft market, you can find some of Bhutan’s best handmade products. One can choose from handbags, wall décor items, small prayer wheels and Buddhist trinkets, handicraft items made of wood, cane and bamboo as souvenirs. The market is a good place for shopping in Paro and supporting the local communities.

5. Enjoy the local cuisine

One cannot simply come to Bhutan and not enjoy its local food. Tasting the country’s favourite dish Ema Datshi is one of the best Paro things to do. It is a lovely combination of red-hot chillies and cheese, conventionally yak cheese. Other than this, there are other delicacies like Phaksha Paa – a dish with pork and chilli, and Jashu Maru – spicy minced chicken. Do not forget to try Ara, the local fermented alcoholic beverage. It is delicious to taste and keeps the body warm.

    Jayesh's 7 days trip to Paro

    We had an incredible experience with Green Zone Destinations during our trip to Bhutan. From the moment we arrived to the time we left, every detail was perfectly taken care of. The seamless entry and exit process made our journey stress-free, and their personalized service truly stood out. The sel
    ection of hotels was spot on, offering comfort and wonderful hospitality. The arrangements for the cab, driver, and guide were exceptional. A special thanks to our guide, Narendra, for his in-depth knowledge and warm demeanor, and to our driver, Tashi, who ensured we had a smooth and comfortable journey throughout. We’d also like to extend our gratitude to Sharmila for her personalized welcome at Thimphu, which made us feel truly special and set the tone for a wonderful trip. Exploring Bhutan with their help was an absolute joy. We couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was perfect, and we are completely satisfied. Thank you, Green Zone Destinations, for making our trip memorable!

    Divya's 7 days trip to Paro

    The tour was awesome and without any hassles. Our pickups and drops from airport and to airport were always on time, and the tour bus was always on time. This helped us from nuances of delays.full rating for this. The tour guide was quite gentle kind and pleasing and always answered all our quest
    ions, we had great discussions and cultural knowledge exchange with Bijay Gurung on the trip. The bus captain was quite amiable and was always drove with cool mind ensuring absolute safety. The hotel staff was well informed by our tour operator GreenZone (Sharmila Ma'am). It is highly notable that Sharmila Ma'am always responded all our questions how much ever basic and silly could be within no time. She has her WhatsApp always on, and gives a lot of priority to customers' queries and always answers promptly. Her continuous help and guidance made our journey very well informed and comfortable as we knew where we are ad what we are supposed to do. A big thank you to Sharmila Ma'am and her team for making my daughter's first birthday grand in Bhutan. Heartfelt Kadin Chhe to you and Bhutan. We highly recommend Green Zone and Sharmila Ma'am for all tourist activities for Bhutan. We also thank Travel Triangle for their easy to use application and prompt service for helping us choose the agent. Without travel triangle we won't be able to find the right Travel partner so easily.

    Suraj Kumar Sureka

    Suraj's 7 days trip to Paro

    It was an amazing experience booking this trip with Green Zone Destination (GZD). The trip was well organized by Sharmila ji and near to perfect. She took care of everything and was very pro active in all her communications both before the trip and during the trip as well. She ensured that all prob
    lems / questions were answered and the trip experience was smooth. For example we were not happy with the food options in one of the hotels and we raised it to Sharmila ji. She immediately escalated the message to the hotel and we were treated with a wide spread of breakfast options in the next morning. The driver was calm and well behaved. The guide was quite knowledgeable. He provided insights / shared tales in all the places we visited. The best part was hiking to Tiger nest monastery. The view was breath taking. Overall very well planned. Kudos to GZD team and Sharmila ji :)
