Tiger’s Nest may be Bhutan’s icon, but the kingdom holds countless wonders beyond. This land has its own rhythm and deserves respect. Travel here is not about ticking off sights, but about connection, discovery, and responsibility — ensuring its fragile beauty endures for generations.
The Druk Path is Bhutan’s most famous trail, but the kingdom offers endless journeys. Trek through the wild Lunana region, wander the hidden valleys of Bumthang, or hike across Dochula Pass as 108 chortens gleam in the sun. Every path carries whispers of gods, spirits, and mountains.
Once Bhutan’s capital, Punakha remains a fertile valley where rice terraces and rivers converge beneath the grand Punakha Dzong. Life here unfolds in harmony — monks crossing wooden bridges, farmers working fields, and festivals turning the valley into a living canvas of colour.
Though Bhutan has no railways, its winding mountain roads and high-altitude trails are journeys in themselves. Drive through Dochula with panoramic Himalayan views, or hike village-to-village in Haa and Laya. Each road bends into new stories, each trail leads to hidden sanctuaries.
In the northern reaches of Bhutan live the Layaps, semi-nomadic herders who move with their yaks across alpine pastures. Their turquoise-studded attire, rituals, and resilience embody Bhutan’s deep bond between land and people. Visiting them is less about witnessing isolation and more about understanding balance with nature at its purest.
