The Chomolhari Trek

The Chomolhari Trek is a 7–9 day high-altitude route through the Jigme Dorji National Park, Bhutan. The trail traverses from Drugyel Dzong toward the base of Mount Jomolhari (7,326m), a sacred peak for the Bhutanese people. The route reaches high points at the Nyele La pass (4,700m) and potentially the Bongte La (~4,890m) depending on the variant. It is characterized by sustained exposure above 3,500 meters, passing through sub-alpine forests and high glacial basins where seasonal yak herders maintain their summer camps.

The Lycian Way (Likya Yolu) is Turkey's first and most renowned long-distance trekking route. Stretching for roughly 540 kilometers from Fethiye (Ovacık) to Antalya, it is a spectacular collision of deep azure Mediterranean waters, rugged pine-clad mountains, and ancient history. The trail loosely traces the jagged coastline of the ancient Lycian civilization, a confederation of fierce naval city-states. Hikers walk on ancient Roman roads, narrow goat trails, and steep mountain passes, constantly moving between remote, pristine pebble beaches (like Kabak and Patara) and high alpine lookouts (like Mount Olympos/Tahtalı). Along the way, the path weaves directly through dozens of spectacular, overgrown ruins of ancient Lycian cities with their iconic rock-cut tombs.
