Introduction
Chomolhari Base Camp Trek is one of the most challenging trekking in Bhutan but promises an unforgettable experience. The trekking takes you around the ridges, along the valleys, crossing the passes, and through the steep slopes. The stunning view of the mountain peaks covered with snow, hills, plateaus, and the landscapes covered with forests remains in your memory forever. You would also get an opportunity to spend the night in the middle of yak herds, interacting with the herders at the campsites. The trip is not all about trekking but also about exploring the cities of Paro and Thimphu.

According to Tibetan and Bhutanese Mythology Durk means Thunder Dragon. They have acknowledged it as the Bhutanese National Symbol and included it on the national anthem, national emblem and national flag. In Dzongkha Bhutan is called Druk Yul "Kingdom of Druk" thus also known as Land of thunder Dragon.
While on the Journey to Bhutan there are no restrictions on clothing but make sure it is comfortable and suits the environment. We recommend lightweight walking shoes, full sleeve light wool clothes, good sunglass, a hat and lastly a trekking jacket. If you are traveling Bhutan in winter we advise you to pack woolen clothes to keep yourself warm.
Note: You should try to avoid body revealing clothes as much as you can and make sure to do it while visiting cultural heritage.
