Royal Tour Day 6: Kate undertakes five-hour hike in fashion boots and skinny jeans 

15/4/2016

Today, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge tackled a five-hour trek up in the Himalayas to visit one of Bhutan’s holiest sites, the Paro Taktsang - better known as the Tiger's Nest.

The monastery is set on a cliff-side of the upper Paro valley and dates back to
1692. It is credited for being the birthplace of Buddhism in the country. ​

William and Kate set off early from their hotel, for a 90 minute drive to the bottom of the mountain.

The royal couple continued their climb to the monastery while the press-pack stayed behind. William and Kate were photographed a couple hours later making their way back to base.

For today's trekking adventure Kate opted for fashion over function. There was no hiking gear in sight! She looked comfortable in a chic combination of knee-high boots and skinny jeans.

She wore her Penelope Chilvers Long Tassle Boots (£475), which have been a closet staple for over a decade.

Another familiar piece was the Really Wild Clothing Shoot Nubuck Waistcoat, first worn by the Duchess in 2012 for the 'Expanding Horizons' camp.

Kate wore a new roll-sleeve shirt - the Jaeger Linen Classic Blouse (£89). Thanks to @LenaLovesLifeee for the tip! The blouse is available at Jaeger, House of Fraser and John Lewis.
