One World Trekking’s New Bhutan Tour Featured in Outside Magazine’s “Travel Hot List 2011”

March 25, 2011 - PRLog -- Outside magazine’s March 2011 “Travel Hot List 2011” issue features One World Trekking's brand new hiking and cultural tour into a recently-opened region of eastern Bhutan. Hikers and adventure lovers now have the opportunity to explore the Sakteng Wildlife Refuge and the remote valleys of Merak and Sakteng.

Colorado-based adventure travel company One World Trekking’s Merak & Sakteng Trek is currently featured as one of the world’s “New Frontiers" in Outside Magazine’s March 2011 issue, which highlights the top travel adventures in the world.

“It’s not often that new areas in Bhutan open to the public. It is wonderful having our new hiking and cultural journey recognized by one of the most reputable travel magazines in the world,” said Andy Crisconi OWT Founder, Trekking Consultant and Trip Guide. “This will be an exploratory trip of a lifetime!”

One World Trekking’s Sakteng Trek in Bhutan is specially designed for those seeking an off-the-beaten path hiking vacation to cure the been-there-done-that syndrome. Travelers spend 9 days in Bhutan hiking and camping in order to complete the circuit that connects the Merak and Sakteng valleys, inhabited by nomads from southern Tibet and (as legend has it) a Yeti or two! The trip begins and ends in Delhi, India.

One World Trekking was honored by Outside magazine in 2010 for its Upper Dolpo Trek in Nepal, which retraced the journey of author Peter Matthiessen as chronicled in his famous travel book The Snow Leopard.

One World Trekking was founded in 1988 and has its roots deeply entrenched in the kingdoms of the Himalayas. They are committed to providing quality small group hiking tours that include a significant cultural experience.
