Trekking in Bhutan:
Bhutan offers great opportunities for trekkers with its splendid scenic beauty, lofty mountains and deep valleys untempered by modernization. It provides scenic beauty which gradually unfolds in all its glory and charm. Life styles change from the colourful lively pace of Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan, to the more traditional, simple remote mountain villages.
Trekking in this Himalayan Kingdom is the most wonderful experience a visitor can have. It is quite different from other parts of the Himalayas. The country ranges from the dense forest of subtropical jungles to the alpine shrubs, endowed with a wide spectrum of the Himalayan flora and fauna. The land is thinly populated with scattered settlements. A person may walk for several days before sighting a village. Trekking in Bhutan is a recent development, although the Himalayas as a whole have held long standing attraction to the western world for trekking and mountaineering. Bhutan is one of the most exclusive and rare destination for any tourist. The beautiful landscape, the unique architecture of buildings, the snow-capped peaks, colourful Dzongs, the lamaist Buddhist tradition and friendly people leave an everlasting impression on the visitor.
