Trekking in Bhutan

A guidebook to 22 multi-day treks in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan,
including the Jhomolhari, Druk Path and Dagala treks. The trails vary from 2
to 23 days long. The routes are mostly in western and central Bhutan, and
range from easy to strenuous depending on the length, altitude and difficulty.
Includes advice on cultural awareness.

You will find thorough coverage of all the practicalities, with notes on
trekking seasons, outfitters, transport, accommodation and food, ethics and
etiquette, equipment and medical considerations (including safety at
altitude). The guide also offers a fascinating insight into Bhutanese mountain
life, from local superstitions and beliefs to plants, wildlife and yak
husbandry. Route description is presented alongside sketch mapping and
information on local points of interest.

Included are the classic Lunana ‹Snowman› Trek, the Jhomolhari and Dagala
Treks, and the Druk Path, as well as many other treks – both well-established
trails and other routes of a more exploratory nature, venturing into remote
and seldom-visited areas of the country. Visitors to Bhutan can expect
breathtaking mountain scenery and unspoilt landscapes, a vibrant culture and
genuine hospitality. Trekking here is a truly unique experience, promising
memories that will last a lifetime.
