What happens when you set this watch
We track every fare from your airport into Paro for October 20 to 26, 2026, round trips of 7 to 12 nights, across every airline. The moment one drops, you get one email with the dates, the price and a link to book. Free, and you can stop any time.
Know before you go
- This is a proper trek with cold camping; bring layers rated for snow and decent boots.
- Gasa's hot springs on the walk out are the reward; leave a night for them.
- From Paro it is a full day by road to Gasa via Punakha, then a two day walk to Laya; operators handle the camping and porters.
