Tour Overview

For the serious trekker, Jomolhari Base Camp is the crown jewel of Bhutanese trekking. The route follows the Paro Chhu river deep into the Himalayan wilderness, passing remote villages and ancient ruins.

At Jangothang camp (4,080m), wake to the overwhelming sight of Jomolhari's 7,314m pyramid rising from glacier fields — one of the most dramatic mountain vistas in all of Asia. This is an experience for physically prepared adventurers seeking a genuine Himalayan wilderness journey. Helicopter evacuation insurance is strongly recommended.

Highlights

  • Jangothang Base Camp at 4,080m beneath sacred Mt. Jomolhari (7,314m)
  • Towering views of the sacred Himalayan peak from camp
  • Remote Bhutanese highland villages virtually untouched by tourism
  • Ancient Jangothang Dzong ruins in the high wilderness
  • Yak herding camps and nomadic herder encounters
  • Paro Chhu river valley approach through pristine wilderness

Highly recommended. I book 2 nights & 3 days tour with Arise Bhutan. I had Kuenzang Wangchuk as my guide & Ugyen Wangdi as my driver. I had an enjoyable & fun tour with both gentlemen. Highlights of the tour; flexibility...Wangchuk & Ogyen are very well versed on the attractions in Paro and even suggested better ones along the way. 10 km total hike to Taktsang or the famous Tiger's Nest...memorable & very picturesque all the way up. Restaurants selection were all neat & delicious with a restaurant that has my own local dish being recommended. I told them that i want to experience how local lives and their culture, so they took me to have high tea in one of his friend's house coinciding with first rice harvest in the village..plus the archery & town tour...awesome. More importantly, both gentlemen were a lovely, kind, attentive & have a great sense of humour. Bhutan is already a beautiful country, and adding Arise, Wangchuk & Ugyen to it, making my trip near perfection...
