(01) The journey
Fortress monasteries above the clouds, rice valleys in Punakha, and the walk to Tiger's Nest at first light.
(02) Day by day
Days 1–4 · Thimphu and Punakha
Cross the Dochu La pass to the Punakha valley, where the dzong sits between two rivers.
Days 5–8 · Bumthang
The spiritual heart of the country: monasteries, farmhouses and a festival if the calendar allows.
Days 9–11 · Paro
Walk to Tiger’s Nest at dawn with a monk as your guide, then a hot-stone bath to end the trip.
This is a starting point, not a package.
Every day above can move, stretch or disappear.
