What distinguishes treks of Bhutan distinct is the human-to-human connection. Treks meander through isolated villages, where life is with a calm pace. A cup of simple Butter tea or a warm smile from a farmer in the area or a serene monastery perched on the rock often become the most memorable of the trek.
