    Getting There

    Car

    From Sarpang town, head west on the main highway (Bhutan National Highway 2) towards Gelephu. After approximately 30 km, look for a signpost directing you to Bubja Waterfall. Turn left onto the gravel road. Continue on this road for about 10 km, following the signs. Be prepared for some rough patches and potentially uneven terrain. Once you reach the trailhead, you may need to park your car and continue on foot for the last 1 km to the waterfall.

    Public Transportation

    Take a local bus from Sarpang to Gelephu. The bus departs from the main bus terminal in Sarpang and the journey will take about 1 hour. Once you arrive in Gelephu, you will need to hire a local taxi or arrange a shared vehicle (usually available near the bus stop) to take you to the Bubja Waterfall trailhead. The taxi ride will take an additional 30-40 minutes. Ensure you agree on the fare beforehand, as prices can vary.

    Hiking

    After reaching the trailhead by car or taxi, prepare for a short hike. The final stretch to Bubja Waterfall involves a well-marked trail. It's approximately a 1 km walk from the parking area to the waterfall. The trail can be steep and rocky, so wear sturdy footwear and bring water. Take your time to enjoy the natural beauty along the way.
