The Ultimate Trekking Experience

The power and beauty of the mountains are more impressive on foot than from any vehicle. Whether you embark on a two-night trek around the Bumthang Valley, walk for five days from Paro to Thimphu, or take on the one-month Snowman Trek (the toughest trek in the world), the views, villages, people, and experiences will be unparalleled.

Awakening at dawn to the sound of the cockerel and a warming mug of tea, trekkers at high altitudes are invariably greeted by breathtaking mountain views. Few sights on earth can equal the first sunlight hitting a Himalayan peak. Trekking during April and May brings the deep reds and oranges of the rhododendron blossoms. Earlier in the year, the light is sharper but the nights are colder. In autumn, after the rainy season, the skies clear, and the leaves begin to turn yellow; this is an excellent season for trekking.

Our Trekking Tours

Our treks range from mild to the most strenuous treks in the world and are fully equipped with gear imported from the US, supported by the most experienced trek leaders and crew. We carry our own supplies and provisions to ensure quality and hygienic food, with comfortable tented accommodations that meet our high standards.

Short Treks

Perfect for those with limited time or who are new to trekking, our short treks around regions like Bumthang and Paro offer stunning scenery and cultural encounters over a few days. These treks are designed to provide a gentle introduction to the beauty of Bhutan’s landscapes and heritage. As you walk through verdant valleys and alongside clear rivers, you’ll visit ancient temples and monasteries, meet local villagers, and experience the serene beauty of the countryside. Short treks are ideal for families, beginners, or anyone looking to experience Bhutan’s natural splendor without the physical demands of longer treks.

Moderate Treks

For those seeking a bit more adventure, our moderate treks, such as the Druk Path Trek, provide a perfect balance of challenge and beauty. These routes take you through varied landscapes, from lush forests and alpine meadows to high mountain passes with sweeping vistas. The Druk Path Trek, for example, connects the valleys of Paro and Thimphu, passing by pristine lakes, ancient dzongs (fortresses), and traditional villages. Moderate treks offer trekkers the opportunity to delve deeper into Bhutan’s natural and cultural richness while still being accessible to those with a reasonable level of fitness.

Challenging Treks

For seasoned trekkers, our challenging routes, including the legendary Snowman Trek, push the limits of endurance and offer rewards in the form of spectacular vistas, rare wildlife sightings, and profound personal achievement. The Snowman Trek, known as the toughest trek in the world, traverses high-altitude passes and remote valleys, taking you through some of the most breathtaking and isolated regions of Bhutan. These demanding treks require a high level of fitness and determination but provide unparalleled experiences as you explore the rugged wilderness, encounter elusive wildlife, and witness the raw beauty of the Himalayas.
