Druk Path Trekking

4.0(1 review)

Bhutan is well-known for some of the best and most exciting trekking trails in the Himalayan region. Many tourists visit Bhutan to explore the untouched beauty of the mountains – best experienced on foot. The Druk Path trek is one of the finest short trekking routes in Bhutan. Connecting the valleys of Paro and Thimpu, the trail leads over high passes on an ancient trading route, passing through spectacular rhododendron forests, alpine yak pastures and beautiful lakes stocked with snowy mountain trout. The trek begins via apple orchards and pine forests past a ruined Jele Dzong (fortress), which sits on a high grassy ridge overlooking breathtaking views of Mount Jumolhari to the north. In the next four days, we climb above the tree line and cross several passes including the Phume La (4210m). En route, we come across amazing clear mountain lakes, a number of yak herder’s camps and the splendid view of the Himalayas. At the end of the trail, descend through the pine and juniper forests via Phadjoding monasteries and head to the capital of Bhutan.

Perfect tour & excellent service!

An Inspiring Tour to Bhutan We had a great trip to Bhutan this year. We worked on the trip for a whole year with an agent - Jovi who is wonderful, he planned a magnificent tour for us and was always there to answer our questions. The tour was great with wonderful guides who did everything they could to satisfy and make us happy. They took good care of us where needed. The drivers were excellent, in winding, rugged, narrow roads we felt completely safe. Everything on the tour worked perfectly well. Thank you.

This G Adventures trip was the "real thing". a chance to get a good exposure to the culture of Bhutan combined with lots of great hiking and outdoor experience (from birds and flowers to leeches!) without feeling like I was destroying anything. I felt that G Adventures did a good job minimizing our impact by sticking with its principles.
