    TRAVEL | SUMMER ADVENTURES 100 | TRAVELITE TRAVEL | SUMMER ADVENTURES ELEMENTS OF ASIA With adrenaline-pumping adventures set in mind-blowing locations, these thrilling journeys are well beyond your usual tours. So leave your inhibitions behind and discover the wild side of the world – and yours too – as you become one with the elements. WORDS BY TIM RUSSELL TRAVELITE | 99 TRAVEL | SUMMER ADVENTURES EARTH The landlocked Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan is one of Asia’s most mysterious and quirky destinations, and one that is fully determined to hang on to its unique character – progress is measured in Gross National Happiness rather than GDP; there’s an annual limit on the number of tourist visitors; and the locals wear national dress out of habit rather than for show. It’s a truly charming country. You can, of course, view Bhutan’s spectacular scenery and welcoming towns from the comfort of a private car, but to truly immerse yourself in the country’s landscapes, there’s no better way than to strap on your walking boots and get trekking. Ultra-luxe tour operator Remote Lands makes this easy with a wide range of programmes, including the six-day Druk Path Trek. On the one hand, it’s pretty tough going – you’ll be trekking up to 11 mi a day at altitudes reaching 12,700 You’ll finish off in the friendly capital Thimphu, before ft – so you’ll need to be physically fit. But all that effort heading to Paro Airport, making it easy to extend your trip is well worth it when you consider the sights that lie in by visiting connecting countries such as India or Thailand.
