“Visiting the Land of the Thunder Dragon can be challenging, but there's new incentive to finally cross it off the bucket list in 2022, as its breathtaking Trans Bhutan Trail is open to travelers for the first time in 60 years.

According to the Bhutan Canada Foundation -- the principal donor to the restoration project -- the 250-mile route connects nine dzongkhags (districts), 28 gewogs (local governments), two municipalities, one national park and 400 historic and cultural sites."
