Outdoor classroom in Bhutan
Well, you leave the country for two weeks and all of a sudden, it’s autumn!
At least it’s not quite as cold as climbing to Tiger’s Nest, Bhutan as snow falls, which is what Leanne and some hardy Back Trackers did on our recent Ruby Anniversary trip. We’ll hear more about that adventure in coming editions.
We’re also excited about the imminent Better than Base Camp trek in Nepal, and Beautiful Africa safari in Zimbabwe. April is going to be huge!
We’re feeling inspired by wild terrain and beautiful vistas this month, so hope you enjoy these wonderful itineraries and destinations.
Have a safe and Happy Easter break!
From our family to yours,
The Back Track Adventures team

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS
Was last Christmas not all you hoped for? Wanna do something different this year?
Now is the time to start thinking about December and the Christmas holidays, especially if you’re keen to experience a cold weather (preferably “snowy”) Christmas.
If you have school-aged kids, it’s time to start thinking about those plans for the June and September school holidays (time will get away from you quicker than you think).
