Nature

Explore the Prestine Wilderness of the Himalayas

Bhutan is not just a destination; it is a sanctuary. As one of the world’s few Carbon Negative countries, our commitment to the earth is written into our constitution, ensuring that 60% of our land remains forested for all eternity. For the nature lover, Sonith Travels offers an immersive journey into landscapes that remain as they were centuries ago.

A Landscape of Extremes

From the subtropical plains of the south to the glacial peaks of the north, Bhutan’s dramatic rise in altitude—from 100 meters to over 7,500 meters—creates a "vertical garden" of biodiversity.

The Greater Himalayas: Home to Gangkhar Puensum, the world’s highest unclimbed peak.
The Inner Valleys: Lush, temperate forests and winding rivers that carve through the heart of the kingdom.
The Southern Foothills: Rich tropical jungles teeming with life.

Biodiversity at a Glance

Bhutan is a global biodiversity hotspot where new species are still being discovered today. When you travel with us, you enter a world inhabited by:

Wildlife: Over 200 mammal species, including the elusive Snow Leopard, the majestic Bengal Tiger, and our national animal, the unique Takin.
Floral Wonders: More than 5,000 plant species. Wander through forests featuring 50 species of Rhododendron and over 600 varieties of Orchids.
Avian Paradise: A world-class destination for birders with 612 recorded bird species, including the critically endangered White-bellied Heron and the sacred Black-necked Crane.

Protected for Generations

We take you into the heart of Bhutan’s conservation success. Approximately 26% of the country is strictly protected across four national parks, nature reserves, and wildlife sanctuaries.

What makes our nature tours unique is the harmonious coexistence you will witness. Many of these protected areas are home to local communities. At Sonith Travels, we arrange for you to meet these "guardians of the forest," learning how Bhutanese culture and nature thrive hand-in-hand.
