Trip Overview

The Druk Path Trek is a popular trekking route in Bhutan that takes you through stunning landscapes, pristine lakes, and ancient monasteries. The trek usually takes around five to six days to complete and covers a distance of approximately 60 kilometers.

The trek starts from Paro and ends in Thimphu, the capital city of Bhutan. Along the way, you will pass through dense forests of pine and juniper, walk over mountain passes, and camp near crystal-clear lakes.

Some of the highlights of the Druk Path Trek include:

The stunning view of Mount Jomolhari, which is Bhutan’s second-highest mountain and one of the most sacred peaks in Bhutanese culture.

The pristine lakes of Jimilangtso and Jangchulakha, which are located at high altitudes and are surrounded by beautiful landscapes.

The ancient monastery of Jili Dzong, which is perched on a hilltop and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.

The traditional Bhutanese villages of Labana and Jele Dzong, where you can interact with the friendly locals and learn about their culture and way of life.

Bhutan Druk Path Tour is a short five days trek, which leads from Paro to Thimphu or vice versa, crossing the chain of mountains that separates the two beautiful valleys. Although the route is sparsely inhabited, there are wonderful lakes teeming with fish and the area is famous for its spectacular rhododendron forests, which bloom in May. In the clear weather of late autumn and winter there are great views of the Himalayas in Bhutan.

Overall, the Druk Path Trek is a must-do for anyone visiting Bhutan and is a great way to experience the natural beauty and rich culture of this magical kingdom.
