A serene and picturesque landscape is captured, featuring a vibrant turquoise river winding its way through a rocky terrain surrounded by lush green mountains. The crystal-clear waters of the river, likely fed by glacial melts, flow over boulders and rocks, creating a mesmerizing display of ripples and cascades. On the riverbanks, towering pine and oak trees stand tall, their foliage providing a natural canopy that casts dappled shadows on the rocky ground. The sky above is a brilliant blue, with fluffy white clouds drifting lazily overhead, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. This tranquil scene exudes a sense of peace and natural beauty, transporting the viewer to a remote and unspoiled wilderness.

Hiking Beside a Turquoise River in Bhutan

Hiking in #Jakar in #Bhutan, almost immediately the Chamkhar Chu begins rushing to our right, a light yet vibrant turquoise river splashing glacial waters over boulders and stretching south into India. Even when we enter the forest, a woodland canopy of blue pine and oak shading us from the sun, I still glimpse its waters. I can’t help but notice it smells like home, and despite being in one of the world’s most remote destinations I’m transported to the Catskills of New York.
