All of our Bhutan treks are carefully selected and offered because each delivers a rewarding Himalayan experience in its own way. That said, some treks stand out depending on the time available, physical demands, and scenery you are seeking.
Among Bhutan’s high-altitude treks, our top recommendation is the Snowman Trek, followed by the Chomolhari–Laya Trek (Above the Clouds). These are truly legendary routes—but they require significantly more time and, especially in the case of the Snowman Trek, very strong physical endurance.
This is where the Snow Leopard Chomolhari Trek becomes a standout choice.
Why we highly recommend the Snow Leopard Chomolhari Trek:
- It offers a true high-altitude Himalayan experience in just 6 trekking nights, including one rest day at base-camp for optional exploration.
- By the third day of trekking, you are already camping near the base of Mt. Chomolhari (7,314 m)—one of Bhutan’s most iconic and beautiful peaks.
- The route is a loop trek, which means changing scenery almost every day and no backtracking.
- It strikes an excellent balance between dramatic mountain views, alpine camps, and physical challenge—without the extreme commitment of longer expeditions.
Other excellent Bhutan treks we recommend:
Druk Path Trek: A classic high trail between Paro and Thimphu with lakes, ridgelines, and panoramic views; shorter and less demanding.
Dagala Trek: Known for its stunning chain of high-altitude lakes and wide Himalayan vistas; quieter and ideal for those who enjoy open landscapes.
If you want a trek that delivers big Himalayan scenery, close-up views of snow-capped peaks, and a true sense of adventure—without needing two to three weeks—the Snow Leopard Chomolhari Trek is one of the best treks in Bhutan.
