Warathang – Dur Tshachu
A short half-hour climb leads to Juelela pass (4,400m). After the pass, descend to the riverside through dense rhododendron, juniper and conifer forests. After the bridge a short climb leads to Dur Tshachu hot spring, where Guru Padmasambhava is suppose to have taken bath in 8th hot spring. We enjoy the much needed bath today at the hot springs. Walking time 5 hours. Altitude 3590m
