The first road in Bhutan was built only in the early 70s.
Until then people traveled along trails, hundreds of years
old. Even now, some parts of Bhutan are days away from the
nearest road. Trekking in Bhutan is along these ancient
trade routes, far away from the main towns. Trek routes take
you through villages not yet reached by the hands of change.
And unlike in other countries, the villagers and the cattle
will be the only occasional traffic you will come along the
trail. Assisted by our trained crew, it is the best way to
experience the country and to meet the local people. We have
herewith few Itineraries as sample of trekking trips in

Trekking in Bhutan is unlike anywhere else in
the Himalayas. The walks are long and arduous
but they are complemented by the pristine
atmosphere and views that defy description. Only
a handful of tourists trek each year; trails are
not as developed as they are in other countries.
However what Bhutan may lack in infrastructural
development, it makes up for in superb support
facilities for trekkers. All herewith treks are
accompanied by trained guides of Bhutan and an
excellent support staff of our Bhutan. All gear
is carried by horses and yaks; you will only
have to carry a daypack with your camera and
extra films.
We have tried to think of many ways to make your
trek as comfortable as possible. Our support
crew will walk ahead and set up the camp before
you arrive. A warm cup of tea waiting in the
dining tent is the most welcome treat after ten
hours hiking up and down mountains, sometimes as
high as 18,000 feet. |
