Unwind in the most authentic way possible with a Private Traditional Hot Stone Bath, a centuries-old Bhutanese wellness practice that combines natural healing, warm hospitality and stunning countryside views. Found only in Paro and Punakha, this unique experience is the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring Bhutan’s breathtaking landscapes.

Your hot stone bath takes place in a traditional Bhutanese farmhouse, where large river stones are heated over an open fire before being placed into a handcrafted wooden tub filled with mineral-rich water. As the stones crack from the heat, they release healing minerals into the water, believed to soothe sore muscles, improve circulation and promote deep relaxation. Local medicinal herbs such as Artemisia are often added, enhancing the bath’s therapeutic benefits.

Paro: After a hike to Tiger’s Nest Monastery, a hot stone bath is the perfect way to ease tired muscles and reflect on your spiritual journey.

Punakha: Surrounded by lush rice fields and the serene Punakha Valley, this setting offers a peaceful retreat after exploring the stunning Punakha Dzong or hiking to Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten.
