About

Himalayan Trail Bhutan is run by former mountaineers. We specialise in Bhutan's iconic multi-day treks — Druk Path (5 days), Jomolhari (7-9 days), Laya Gasa (14 days) and the legendary Snowman Trek (25+ days). All our trek guides hold a wilderness first-responder certification and carry satellite communicators. We work with a permanent team of cooks, horsemen and porters who we train and equip ourselves. Non-trekkers welcome — we also run cultural add-ons in Paro, Thimphu and Bumthang.

Completed Jomolhari 2 last October with Himalayan Trail. Professional crew, well-fed, safe. Their acclimatisation schedule is conservative which I appreciated.

Druk Path 5-day. We had snow on day 3 and the team was totally prepared. Guide rotated us through the tough sections. Unforgettable.

Did a 3-night cultural add-on in Bumthang after my trek. Lead guide's English was excellent, cultural knowledge deep. Hotel choice could be upgraded.

Only operator that took my 60-year-old mother seriously for a shorter trek. Tailored route, slower pace. She finished strong and grinning.

Pre-trip Zoom call with our guide was a nice touch. Sorted out gear and fitness questions. No surprises on the trail.

Good experience overall. Minor issue with one campsite location (boggy) but the guide moved us. Communication was open throughout.

Booked after seeing their Snowman 2024 report on Instagram. Everything checked out. Serious operator, not for the unfit.
