Packing Smart for Altitude, Culture & Comfort
Bhutan’s rapid elevation shifts—from 200 m valleys to 4,000 m passes—demand layered, versatile gear. Respectful clothing for temples and rugged equipment for trails are must-haves.
Core Clothing & Footwear
Moisture-wicking base layers, a fleece mid-layer, and a waterproof shell form your wardrobe backbone. Include long pants, skirts, and a scarf for monastery visits, plus sturdy boots for uneven terrain.
Health, Tech & Extras
Pack SPF 50+ sunscreen, blister plasters, altitude meds (Diamox), and a basic first-aid kit. Bring a Type D/G adapter, power bank, and extra SD cards to stay powered and capture every scene.
Quick Tip: Roll your clothes to save space and reduce wrinkles—most hotels offer laundry services.
