This customised cycling journey has been designed to show you the essential Bhutan – from the best vantage point… on two wheels, under your own steam. Bhutan has an amazing east-west road through the ‘middle hills’ and valleys, which not only offers amazing cycling, but also takes you into the heart of Bhutan. Along the way we make sure to stop and visit the villages, museums, monasteries, temples and of course to take in the incredible views to showcase the truly unique place that Bhutan is.
