| Bhutan, also known as DrukYul (Kingdom in the Sky) by the locals, is a land of rich forests, wild flowers, and abundant wildlife with a relatively small population of under a million people made up of many different ethnic groups. Bhutan allows only a limited number of western visitors to trek each year to preserve its rich cultural heritage, way of life and fragile environment. Because of the conditions imposed on visitor entry to Bhutan we offer only two treks here. The Chomolhari trek is truly an excellent alpine trek to the far northwestern corner of Bhutan, near the Tibetan border.
We journey between the two main towns of Paro and Thimphu winding up through pine forests, yak herders settlements and passing beneath the shadow of Bhutan's divine mountain, Chomolhari. Crossing 4600m high passes we enter a mountain world of snow peaks, lakes and meadows of wild flowers, where herds of wild bharal - blue sheep - roam. During our stay in Paro, we walk up to the Tiger's Nest Monastery, a monastery situated on the edge of a rock face. The Paro valley is also home to Bhutan's oldest temples, National Museum and the country's only airport.  Day 01 Fly to Kolkata
