Bhutan - Bicycle Tour
Bhutan 's Mountainous terrains offer a fascinating adventure for bicycling enthusiasts. The route along Bhutan 's West-East highways (app x 600kms) is an exciting route with challenges of surmounting a new pass over 3,000m everyday. The highways winding up and down mountains with drops of thousands of feet keep one too high on adrenalin to feet the slightest pinch of monotony. As one progresses along the route, there is a discernible change in the flora and temperature when one gradually descends, from the alpine heights, into the temperate regions of the East. All along the route the interruption by picturesque, and almost medieval, villages and towns, rich in cultural spots make a welcome diversion. Itinerary :
