The 38-day-long Trans Bhutan Trail scout walk came to an end in Trashigang earlier today. His Royal Highness Gyaltshab Jigme Dorji Wangchuck accompanied by Ashi Yeatso Lhamo graced the closing ceremony. 24 scouts representing districts and thromdes walked more than 400 kilometres from Haa to Trashigang.

The scouts started their journey from Haa on September 10. The trail covers 403 kilometres across the country through nine districts, 27 gewogs and two national parks. Upon arrival, Trashigang and Trashi Yangtse district officials and scout members of various schools received them.

His Royal Highness Gyaltshab Jigme Dorji Wangchuck awarded medals and certificates to the participants.

“Through this walk, I came to realize how much our grandparents suffered in the olden days. I also got the opportunity to see a lot of animals and various beautiful flowers on the way which I had only seen on Television and in books. I am happy that I got to experience all of this on the way,” said Chimi Wangmo, a scout who completed the trail.

“After crossing Ura in Bumthang, we came to Pema Lingpa’s Dratshang where the road was muddy. So, all of us collected stones and gravel and helped improve the road,” said Jigme Yoezer, another scout.

“While we were walking through various mountains and valleys, we got tired and exhausted on the way. But every time we felt exhausted, we found motivation in His Majesty’s wisdom. We were determined to complete the walk despite the exhaustion and hardships and we did it,” said Damchoe Wangmo, a scout.

The restoration of the trail was conceived by His Majesty The King to revive and promote Bhutan’s ancient trail, known as the Zhung Lam.

The restoration was supported by the Bhutan Canada Foundation and its founder in partnership with the Tourism Council of Bhutan.
