To access the Upper areas of Dzongu, one has to cross the massive riverbed of Rungyung Chu. The vast riverbed can be crossed through a beautiful suspension Bridge at Mantam area. Some of the villages in the upper Dzongu area include Tingvong, Kusong, Sakyong-Pentong and Lingthem. Motorable roads end at Lingzya in Upper Dzongu after Tingvong.
