Best time to travel
Phobjikha Valley in Bhutan is best visited from October to March, when the famous black-necked cranes migrate from Tibet to this untouched valley. These majestic birds, regarded as sacred, make the valley a particularly special place for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Even in winter, when the valley is blanketed in snow, it has a unique allure, and the clear air reveals spectacular views of the surrounding mountains.
