 Trekking in Bhutan is a rare
adventure. Trekking will take you through
wonderful landscapes, sheer falls, rich flora
and fauna, and the most hospitable people you
will ever come across.
Treks can be often tiring, formidable and
arduous in Bhutan. But these very trekking
routes will take you across Wordsworthian
pastoral beauty, fresh trials and majestic snow
capped mountains which add aesthetic value to
your treks. Treks range from simple and easy
treks like Samtengang excursion to the most
formidable trek in the entire Himalayas like the
legendary 24-day Snowman Trek.
Some of the well known treks are the Jhomolhari
Trek, Laya-Gasa Trek, Bumthang Trek, Gantey
Trek, Druk Path, Lunana Sonwman Trek, Gasa Hot
Spring Trek, Rodungla Trek, Sinchula Trek and
Duer Hot Spring Trek.
The best months for trekking are March, April,
May, September, October, and November.
Since the proprietor/managing director of the
company himself has trekked through all of these
trekking routes, his experiences in trekking
logistics can be of immense help to all the
trekkers.
