Dechen Valley Horse Trekking day trip
Leaving Lhasa at 8am we drive 1hour 15mins to the Dechen Valley (near Tolung) where we meet our local horse guide and outfit the group. We then hold an important safety session to make sure everyone understands the safety issues involved in horse riding. We start out slow, allowing time for everyone to get aquainted with their horse. We follow local paths into the hills and stop for lunch. We spend between 3-4 hours of time actually riding and allow plenty of time to meet local nomads and take photos. We return to Lhasa tired but happy around 6pm.
Experience is prefered but not essential.
Note: This trip can added into any cultural or overland journey that included Lhasa
