Whether you are planning for a scientific expedition or just a memorable adventure holiday in the Himalayas ranges, snowman trekking in Bhutan is the ultimate plan.
The Kingdom of Bhutan is a land-locked country surrounded by Indian territories to the South, the east, and the west, and by the Tibet Autonomous Region of China to the north. It has a total area of 45,5000 square kilometers. Bhutan’s geography can be roughly divided into three zones–the sub-Himalayan foothills, the inner Himalayas, and the greater Himalayas.
The sub-Himalayan foothills are stretched along the southern border of the country and contains large regions covered by grasslands, bamboo jungle, and sub-tropic forests.
The inner Himalayas rises from the foothills up to 4000 meters and is the most visited part of Bhutan by the locals and the tourists alike. The valleys in the inner Himalayas are connected by a series of passes and traversed by major river systems of Bhutan.
