Bhutan Itinerary

Bhutan Trekking Itinerary 2009

The thunder dragon kingdom (Bhutan) is a trekker’s paradise and an environmentalist’s dream. Trekkers start from an altitude of around 2400 meters and cross passes as high as6000 meters. The lower altitude winter trekking routes that range from 1300 meters to 1800 meters enable the less hardy trekkers to enjoy the beauty of a semi tropical climate.

Whatever the Bhutan trek you choose, it will be special, as you are surrounded by views of mountain ranges that soar to heights above 7000 meter, and leave the visitor with indelible memories of same nature’s rare gifts of splendor and majesty.

The trip will include:

• A 9 day Jumolhari trek through rarely visited valleys
• Awesome views of Jumolhari, Jitchu Drake and Tsheringkhang
• Meet yak-herders at their camp sites
• Learn about subsistence living and how life is without Modernity
• Acclimatization hike to Taktshang Monastery(Tiger’s nest)
• A visit to the weekend market in Thimphu (Fri-Sat-Sun)
• A  “welcome” meal on the first day
• A “farewell” meal on the penultimate evening
• An optional evening visit to “down town Thimphu” to enjoy in the bars, discotheques and see the Bhutanese live performances
• A traditional Bhutanese meal in a restaurant
• A lunch meal and hot stone bath in a Bhutanese farmhouse
