Jomolhari Mountain Festival

The Jomolhari Mountain Festival celebrates the symbiotic relationship between communities residing near the Jhomolhari mountain and their natural surroundings, especially the graceful yet elusive snow leopard. Attendees can immerse themselves in snow leopard-themed folk performances by locals, Jigme Dorji National Park personnel, and schoolchildren, alongside engaging in traditional sports like Khuru (darts), shot put, as well as horse and yak riding. Gastronomic delights of local cuisine and exquisite handicrafts add to the festival’s charm.

This festival is an excellent addition to the popular Jhmolhari trek. Embark on the ultimate Jomolhari Mountain experience, traversing awe-inspiring mountain landscapes while gaining profound insights into the extraordinary communities that call these breathtaking vistas home.
