Every trek here is a full camping expedition through some of the emptiest mountains left in the Himalaya. Pick your length and grade — we'll tailor the rest.
Spring and autumn are Bhutan's trekking seasons — limited by winter snow and summer rain. Spring brings rhododendrons in full bloom; clear autumn days give the sharpest mountain views. Treks are camping trips carried by horses and yaks, with a guide, cook and crew; there are no lodges on the trails.
The shortest camping trek we run: climb through pine and rhododendron to the Cave of a Thousand Prayers, camp on a ridge above the Paro valley, then descend past the legendary Tiger's Nest.
View journey
Mostly short trekking days between a scatter of crystal-clear high-altitude lakes, wide yak meadows and one of the finest panoramas in Bhutan — Everest, Jomolhari and Kanchenjunga all visible on a clear day.
View journey
The most popular trek in Bhutan links Paro and Thimphu over a high ridge dotted with alpine lakes full of giant trout, and — on a clear day — a view of Gangkar Puensum, the highest unclimbed mountain in the world.
View journey
A quieter route into the Jomolhari region, camping at the Mt. Jomolhari base camp before crossing the Bonte La (4,890 m) into the dramatic Soi Yaksa valley of rock cliffs, waterfalls and snow peaks.
View journey
The classic circuit of sacred Mt. Jomolhari: from the base camp at Jangothang the trail crosses the Nyile La and Yeli La passes to Lingshi and Shodu, then descends past waterfalls and the ruins of Barshong Dzong to finish near Thimphu.
View journey
A two-week expedition through the Jomolhari and Lingshi high country to remote Laya — home of the Layap and their turquoise-and-silver bamboo hats — finishing with a soak in the Gasa hot springs.
View journey
The shortest of our four Snowman routes: drive in to Laya, then cross the high Lunana passes to finish above the Nikachhu — nineteen days with the remoteness of the Snowman and none of the long western approach.
View journey
The eastern half of the Snowman: drive in to Laya, cross Lunana over the Karchung La and Gophu La to the Gangkhar Puensum base camp, then descend to the Duer hot springs and out to Bumthang.
View journey
The complete western approach — Jomolhari, Lingshi, Laya — then over the Karchung La into Lunana and south past a chain of remote lakes to finish at Marothang above the Nikachhu.
View journey
The legendary traverse of the Bhutanese Himalaya — 28 days from Paro to Bumthang, through Laya and the remote district of Lunana. Its length, altitude, remoteness and weather make it one of the most difficult treks in the world.
View journeyFrom an easy two-day hike above Paro to the formidable Snowman traverse — in four different lengths — we'll steer you to the right route for your experience, dates and time.
