Bhutan Trekking and Hiking Tours 2024/2025

From winding mountain passes and sacred Buddhist monasteries to prayer flags fluttering in the wind and bursts of blooming rhododendrons, Bhutan hiking tours combine high adventure with deep cultural insights into this Himalayan kingdom. Jutting out spectacularly from the top of a hill, Tiger’s Nest is one of Bhutan’s best-known monasteries, dating back to the late 17th century, which makes for an excellent day-long hike. Or you can opt to cross the shimmering lakes, alpine meadows and yak herders’ huts on the six-day Dagala Trek, also called the Thousand Lakes Trek. Easily accessible from Paro and Thimphu, it includes an ascent to the holy Jomo (Dagala) Peak and offers superb views of Jomolhari and Jichu Drake peaks. Regarded as one of the most challenging Bhutan trekking tours, the four-week Snowman Trek involves crossing at least 10 high passes and sometimes camping in the snow. Along the way, you will also hike past lakes and waterfalls and spot many blue sheep and yaks.

“I highly recommend this local travel specialist! We had a wonderful experience. Thinley was very accommodating to our needs- even last minute changes. Our guide, Lhab, was very knowledgeable and he and our drivers were delightful to spend time with. I cannot say enough good things.”

“Excellent tour for a quick trip in and out of Bhutan! The local travel specialist company provided me with a customized itinerary that fit the my desired tour destinations in the short amount of time I was in the country. The accommodations were superb and the tour guide and driver were amazingly knowledgeable! Highly recommend!”
A fine hike in beautiful hills
4 - Very Good
  • Peter
“The Tigers nest was a super start to this holiday and must not be missed. There followed a tour of the Pato valley. The a fine fine hike with four nights in tents from Paro to Thimphu. Well organised with a guide who was great for Bhutanese culture and who had very good English. Good food and we were looked after well. Scenery is not as spectacular as in Nepal but it is a beautiful area. We reached 4200 m and it snowed on s one night but we were warm enough. After the trek we spent time being driven to various wonderful cultural sites and over a pass into a further valley. The Dzongs and temples were superb. A memorable trip.”

Highlights of Bhutan Hiking Tours

  • Hike over high mountain passes and through an ancient trading route and pine forests on the Druk Path Trek, which connects the valleys of Paro and Thimphu.
  • Enjoy lovely views of pristine landscapes and peaks like Tsherim Gang and get introduced to the indigenous Laya people on the Laya Gasa Trek, along the Tibetan border.
  • Visit villages, dzongs (hilly monasteries) and temples on the recently-opened iconic Trans Bhutan Trail, which covers a 403-kilometer route from Haa in western Bhutan to Trashigang in the east.
  • Explore the turquoise waters of Nub Tshonapata Lake and hike through rhododendron and juniper forests on the Nub Tshonapata trek.
  • Try your hand at trout fishing during Bhutan hiking tours on the Dagala Thousand Lakes Trek.

Travel Tips for Hiking Tours in Bhutan

  • March to May (spring) and September to November (autumn) are the best seasons for trekking and hiking on Bhutan tours.
  • Avoid trekking in the monsoon season between June and mid-September, as the weather is unpredictable during the rains.
  • Acute mountain sickness is a common challenge during hikes in Bhutan, so give your body some time to adjust when you arrive in the country before starting a trek.
  • Prepare for your hiking expedition by working out thrice a week, focusing on cardio or high-intensity interval training.
  • You are not going to find ATMs or banks in remote mountainous regions, so it is best to withdraw cash from Thimphu or Paro before venturing ahead.
