Bhutan Himalayan Trek to Gangkar Puensum Basecamp

Embark on an enrich­ing jour­ney through the cul­tur­al mar­vels and rugged trekking ter­rain of Bhutan to base­camp for the spec­tac­u­lar 7,570‑m/ 24,829-ft Gangkar Puen­sum. Revered as the world’s high­est unclimbed sum­mit, this sacred moun­tain adds an aura of mys­tique to the jour­ney. Over the span of 9 exhil­a­rat­ing days on the trail, you will trek amidst lush conifer and rhodo­den­dron forests, and across lofty moun­tain pass­es adorned with flut­ter­ing Bud­dhist prayer flags. Along the way, the trekking team will encounter the resilient farm­ers and yak herders of the high­lands, gain­ing insights into Bhutan’s har­mo­nious coex­is­tence with its pris­tine envi­ron­ment and rich Bud­dhist heritage. 

Com­menc­ing from the pic­turesque town of Paro and tra­vers­ing through the cap­i­tal city of Thim­phu, Punakha, Wang­di, Trongsa, and the serene Bumthang Val­ley, this expe­di­tion promis­es an immer­sive blend of cul­tur­al explo­ration and invig­o­rat­ing trekking expe­ri­ences. Pre­pare to be cap­ti­vat­ed by the unpar­al­leled splen­dor of Bhutan’s Himalayan panora­ma, woven seam­less­ly with the tapes­try of its cul­tur­al legacy.
