The trail passes through the green jungles, waterfalls and through the Rhododendron and bamboo forests, where the trekkers are amazed at the beauty of green trails. The Bajredara campsites on the meadow top acts like a natural Balcony on the mountain side, where a person is bound to lose himself/herself in the beauty of the KhanchenDzonga. The name Bajredara, Bajre-thunder and in Nepali Language Dara means ridge, together they mean the thunder stricken ridge ,long time ago there was a huge thunder which struck the very campsite of Bajredara, one could see the thunder stricken burnt trees on the campsite and burnt land of the ridge.
