Norwegian women

We are three Norwegian women in the late fifties who love trekking both in Norway and abroad. Last June we went to Bhutan where we spent ten days from June 19, six of these trekking. The first day we went up to Tigers Nest, a combination of acclimatizing to the altitude and a test of our physical condition, we assume. It was a stunning experience, both the walk up there and the inside of the temple. The five next days we did the Druk Path route, the old kings’ route, from Paro to Thimphu. After... Read more

Bhutan and Kona Bikes

Wednesday, March 4, 2009 I recently returned from my first trip overseas. I always thought my first trip outside of North America would involve backpacking and hostels.

Bhutan is a country... Read more

We had the most unique and wonderful experience in Bhutan. Our guide Kesang Tshering (Bhutan Wilderness Travels) was the best guide to have — knowledgeable, flexible, caring, paying attention to personal needs of his clients. We felt we were in very good hands. Thanks to him and his team, our Bumthang Cultural Trek was a grand, exhilarating, totally manageable adventure for us who needed that extra time to go that extra yard. We would engage Kesang and his company without reserve any time when... Read more
