11 Days Bhutan Majestic Jomolhari Loop Trek
Description
With altitude differences of 2,500m and nearly 5,000m, pristine forests home to some of the world’s most endangered species of flora and fauna, wide range of stunning landscapes with crystalline rivers meandering through the beautiful gorges, there’s something magical about this trip that every trekkers should experience for themselves. Jomolhari Loop Trek is the most popular trekking route in Bhutan. The highlight of this 7-Day trek (Day 4-10) is the spectacular view of Mount Jomolhari from Jomolhari Basecamp (Jangothang) and interacting with semi-nomadic yak herders. Trekkers who want to avoid high passes and high altitude can chose an easier version of the Jomolhari Loop by retracing their steps from Jangothang (see Day 8, 9, 10) while still having the majestic impressions of Mount Jomolhari.

Bhutan is a magical place ad we were very lucky to experience it on the Jomolhari Loop trek with Bhutan Acorn Tours. The trek itself is somewhat demanding so a good degree of fitness is recommended and we were somewhat unfortunate that the weather was not ideal for a few of the trekking days but that being siad the level of service given by Bhutan Acorn was excellent and this lead to us having a wonderful time. The guide Norbo, was excellent and Karma (the company owner) came along on the trek with us, which no doubt put pressure on the guides and help to ensure that everything went well. I was particularly surprised at the quality of the food we were provided with considering that it was always prepared in a 'field kitchen'. The excellent service continued once the trek was over and we spent a few days in both Paro and Thimphu. I could not recommend this tour company enough - if you are fortunate enough to be considering a trip to Bhutan use this company and be prepared to be completely amazed by the country and its people.
