You will visit well preserved centuries old Dzongs (fortresses), temples, and monasteries and be immersed in local cultures by mingling with villagers in the mountainside communities, and witnessing the ancient lifestyle at play. You will have the opportunity to participate in some of the village activities and learn about their daily lives. The day hikes will evoke deep inspiration drawn from Bhutan's pristine nature and mystical culture.
