Active Holidays in Bhutan

Bhutan, a kingdom of enchantment nestled in the eastern Himalaya, is a country known for its untouched landscapes, vibrant culture and for being one of the happiest countries in the world. Holidays in Bhutan are guaranteed to get you smiling.

Steeped in tradition whilst embracing modernity, the last Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan is a land like no other. Walkers of all abilities will be thrilled by spectacular landscapes; whether it’s the short and sweet Druk Path Trek in Bhutan from Paro to Thimphu, completing a spectacular circuit through the Bhutan Himalaya to reach Chomolhari Base Camp, or the famous Snowman Trek - renowned as one the world’s toughest routes. However, it is the fascinating culture that will leave its mark on adventurers. The ascent to Tiger's Nest, a gravity-defying monastery named after a monk who soared there on a tigress, stands as a highlight of any Bhutan journey. Amidst this mystical realm, visitors will be greeted warmly by local guides and mountain villagers, marvelling at a nation where prosperity is measured not in wealth, but in units of happiness.

Chomolhari Basecamp and the Bonte La

Bhutan is an amazing country - unlike any I've been to before. Jigme and the others really brought it to life, and I feel I have a greater understanding of why it is such a happy place. The scenery was stunning too! ...

This was my 2nd KE tour and it met all my expectations and more. The trip had a balance of outdoor movement and inside culture. The only downside was there was a fair bit of vehicle travel. This was not unpleasant as the scenery varied as we trave...
