Trekking
Join us on this deep journey into the far reaches of the Kingdom of Bhutan. Starting in the fertile valley of Paro, this high-altitude trek leads you over the Druk Path, past alpine pastures and yak-grazed ridges, to the hidden settlement of Laya, one of Bhutan’s most remote mountain villages.
From the cliffside Taktsang Monastery (Tiger’s Nest) to the shoulder of Sinche La (5005m), this is a route for seasoned trekkers drawn to raw, isolated wilderness. You’ll cross five major Himalayan passes, walk beneath the towering flanks of Jomolhari (7314m) and Gangchenta, and descend through deep, glaciated valleys.
Along the way, meet Layap herders and camp in pristine wilderness locations framed by alpine ridgelines and glacier-fed rivers. Traverse terrain that shifts from ancient rhododendron forests and groves of spruce, fir and juniper, to wide open valleys dotted with seasonal wildflowers. At night, fall asleep to the remote mountain silence, with stars blazing overhead. Conclude in Gasa and Punakha, with a restorative soak in the natural hot springs.
This is a fully supported expedition-style trek with expert guides, kitchen crew and pack animals – allowing you to focus on the challenge and the rewards of a route that few outsiders ever experience.
