Visiting Duenmang Tsachhu in Nangkor Gewog of Zhemgang was not an easy task in the past. It was not uncommon to lose lives along the treacherous path to the hot spring. However, the path is now as safe as can be. The Tsachhu also have the basic facilities in place. 

People visiting the Tsachhu have to risk walking a narrow path that winds down under a cliff. The 150-metre long stretch is now made safe with concrete slab roofing to protect visitors from falling stones.

“The frequent movement of wild animals over the cliff sends stones down the path. Elderly people had to walk this dangerous path without taking a rest in the past but now, they can rest and walk slowly without having to fear,” said Tashi Tobgay, the caretaker of the Duenmang hot spring.

“It was very risky to walk along this stretch in the past. It is now safe with better footpaths and concrete roofing,” added a visitor.

Most people start visiting the hot spring from November until the end of March. With the increasing number of visitors every year, the Tsachhu is also developed to accommodate more visitors. The Tsachhu now has an 11-unit guest house equipped with basic amnesties. It was built in 2017 as part of a major facelift with the fund support from the Bhutan Trust Fund for environmental conservation.

“The hot spring here is very good and the place is made homely for visitors,” a visitor said.

“The guesthouse is very good but have limited space to expand if more visitors come. I am praying to visit once every year and wish all diseases go away with the blessings from the hot spring,” added another visitor.

The Tsachhu has also 3G internet coverage.

Located on the right bank of the Mangdechhu at the base of a steep hill, the Tsachhu is believed to cure joint pains, sinusitis, and headache among many illnesses.
