Experience Bhutan on Foot

Only in Bhutan can you experience traversing across glacial rivers, interacting with indigenous wildlife and trekking to the base of the highest unclimbed mountain in the world, Gangkar Puensum. This makes Bhutan one of the world's most sought-after trekking destinations.

Bhutan offers trekking alternatives suitable for every experience level, from gentle nature walks through protected forests to demanding multi-day Himalayan expeditions crossing remote mountain passes.

The country's Royal National Parks and protected reserves preserve fragile ecosystems, alpine meadows, pristine lakes and untouched wilderness that few destinations can rival.
