Bhutan's Sacred Summit Trek
Overview
Highlights
- Bhutan lies in the heart of the vast Himalaya and is surrounded by rugged mountain ranges. Towering to the northwest, the stark and dramatic mountains of the Chomolhari Range form the frontier with Tibet.
- Very few visitors have entered this tiny Himalayan kingdom and even fewer have been privileged to trek into her high mountains. Chomolhari (7314m), the sacred mountain of Bhutan, is breathtakingly beautiful.
- Bhutan is not just about scenery and unbelievable mountains; it is also about friendly people and an enduring and living Buddhist faith with magnificent monasteries, rich religious traditions, and a turbulent past.
- The great fortresses or 'dzongs' found throughout the country are mute testimony to the wars, sieges and attempted invasions in times gone by.
- Bhutan is now a peaceful kingdom where the king is revered and the economy is measured in Gross National Happiness!
- Trekking through forests, walking above the tree line with nomadic yak herders, enjoying sightings of rare animals, and standing under the dramatic peaks of Chomolhari make this one of the most rewarding treks in the Himalaya

Tour Operator
It’s been more than 36 years since our first small group set out to discover Nepal. It’s this heritage and our reputation that keeps travellers coming back time and time again.
We appeal to the well-travelled, discerning traveller. The one who chooses value over price, and wants to immerse themselves in a place instead of just ticking landmarks off a bucket list. The type of person who would rather stay in a family run B&B built in a 16th century Venetian convent than a forgettable hotel. We’re for travellers who want inclusions along the way instead of fiddling around for loose change.
Almost 20 years ago, Peregrine led an industry revolution by solely employing locally born leaders. This innovative approach gives our travellers a deeper insight into the countries they visit. Doorways are opened and a true understanding of the place is fostered.
At Peregrine, we travel in intimate groups and take the time to get under the skin of a destination. Of course we all want to see the Taj Mahal in India. But imagine then heading to a remote Rajasthani village and learning about rural life while in the company of locals. Seeing the famous sites is a must, but it’s often the memory of wandering through a small village or sharing dinner with a local family that will leave a lasting impact.
We promise to share our knowledge and expertise with you, and ensure you will come home with stories you will tell for years to come.
