The Snowman Trek in Bhutan

The legendary Snowman Trek in Bhutan, the "Land of the Thunder Dragon", is considered one of the most beautiful and at the same time toughest trekking routes in the world. The trail leads 365 km through the fascinating mountain world of the Himalayas and bridges 14 passes with altitudes up to 5,400 m. For Thorsten Hoyer, author of hiking books and extreme hiker, the Snowman Trek was a long-cherished, lifelong dream. In his book he tells in compelling, emotional texts about energy-guzzling stages at an altitude of more than 5,000 m, freezing nights in lonely tents, breathtaking views of the ice giants of the Himalayas and moving encounters with the local population. Numerous photos give an impression of the unique landscape.
