Best time to Visit Bhutan
Bhutan's climate ranges from tropical in the south, to temperate in the centre of the country, to cold in the north. The best time to go to Bhutan is in the Spring or Autumn. Mid December to early January can be a beautifully clear and a dry time in western Bhutan. Late December through mid February is the period of heaviest snowfall in the higher elevations. The autumn season, late September through November, is usually mild and the sky is at its clearest affording magnificent views of the Himalayas.
Paro
Shops, restaurants and offices in richly carved traditional buildings line the main street of Paro, a couple of hours’ drive from Thimpu, where two of eastern Bhutan’s main rivers meet. Approached by a spectacular flight path, which only a…

Tshechus

Bumthang Valley
Situated in the heart of the country, a crossroads-like alignment of four valleys is collectively known as Bumthang. Until the 1970s, when a road was finally constructed through it, this region remained isolated and relatively undeveloped. …
Trekking in Bhutan
Bhutan’s thickly forested valleys, open ridges and often remote high-mountain country offer some of the best trekking in the Himalayas. Surprisingly few visitors to the country actually come to walk; those that do are often delighted to fin…
