Bhutan has been blessed with nature’s bounty, and ranks amongst the world’s most biologically diverse places. Although a small country no larger than Switzerland (in fact Bhutan is smaller by approximately 3,000 sq kilometers/1,100 sq miles), Bhutan has tremendous altitudinal range – from 200 meters (656 feet) at its lowest point to over 7,500 meters (>24,500 feet) at its highest – and this has provided the country with an array of climatic conditions and habitats which hosts a wide variety of flora and fauna.

Out of the 5,500 known species of vascular plants found in Bhutan, 750 are endemic to the eastern Himalayan region, with 50 or more endemic to Bhutan itself. More than 600 orchid species (of which, at least 50 are endemic to Bhutan), 46 species of rhododendrons (4 endemic), and over 300 species of medicinal plants can be found within its borders. National law also dictates that the country must maintain a forest cover of 60% at all times (presently, Bhutan’s forest cover is a little over 70%).

For botanists and nature lovers, the months of April to July is an absolutely delightful time to visit the country as the forests become enchanted with the most brilliant display of blooming rhododendrons.
