A trekking day lasts six to eight hours of walking, with pack animals (ponies and yaks for higher altitudes) used to carry provisions, baggage, and equipment. All necessary camping and kitchen gear is included in the trek cost. Each trekking group is accompanied by a trained guide, a cook, an assistant, and pack animals. The support crew walks ahead daily to set up camp before the trekkers arrive. Upon reaching camp, trekkers are greeted with a warm cup of tea or coffee in the dining tent—an ideal way to unwind after a day of trekking.
Meals are thoughtfully prepared, with breakfast and dinner consisting of freshly made dishes, offering at least four options. A scenic picnic lunch is served during the day. The trek staff handles all cooking and cleaning, allowing trekkers to fully enjoy the journey.
HIGH ALTITUDE SICKNESS
Altitude sickness can pose a problem for trekkers crossing the high passes. To counter this all our itineraries include appropriate acclimatization days. Almost all of the trek routes in Bhutan go above 3,000 meters.
WHAT TO BRING
Things you would need to bring on trek include a warm sleeping bag, comfortable trekking boots, caps/hats, sun glasses, sun block, flashlight, personal toiletries, medicine/first aid, rain gear, warm jacket, backpack, etc.
