Gasa, Bhutan – Land of Hot Springs and High Himalayan Trails
Gasa, Bhutan’s northernmost and least populated district, is a region of breathtaking natural beauty, dramatic landscapes, and profound spiritual significance. Remote and often shrouded in mist, Gasa is renowned for its pristine hot springs, dense forests, and towering mountain peaks, including the formidable Mount Gangkar Puensum, the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. Its isolation has helped preserve its unique cultural identity and pristine environment, making it a truly off-the-beaten-path destination for adventurous travelers.
The attractions in Gasa are deeply connected to its natural environment and spiritual traditions, offering a unique glimpse into a more untouched side of Bhutan. From ancient fortresses guarding the northern frontiers to rejuvenating hot springs believed to have healing properties, Gasa provides a serene and authentic experience. Visitors can immerse themselves in the tranquil atmosphere, encounter nomadic lifestyles, and appreciate the raw, untouched beauty of the Himalayas.
For those seeking raw beauty, adventure, and healing in nature, Gasa is Bhutan’s highland sanctuary — where the earth steams, the sky stretches wide, and the soul finds peace.
