Bumthang Culture Tour

Trip code NAP-BHU-521

Bumthang is located in the heart of Bhutan and is one of the kingdom’s most attractive destinations for hiking, visiting interesting places or just relaxing. It is also the center of religion and many monasteries are here in this valley. This tour will bring you to the centre of Bhutan through the deep into the heart of the beautiful Bumthang valley. It provides you with a thoroughly enjoyable cultural tour of the spiritual heartland of Bhutan. Our route crosses three high mountains passes: Dochu-La at 3100m, Pele-La at 3300m and Yotongla, the highest at 3400m. Bumthang is considered to be the spiritual home of the Bhutanese people. The entire Bumthang valley is dotted with some of the oldest historical monuments and Nyes (sacred places) in all of Bhutan, some dating back to the 7th century A.D., a period of which there is little modern knowledge.
