Visitors were not allowed on the Druk route for a long time to keep them away from the Tibetan troops, but after a period of peace, this stunning trek has finally opened up for visitors, its unique culture, landscapes and beauty primed for exploration. The Druk Path has great cultural significance, its high ridges offering windy conditions for most parts of the year, classic mountains full of charming rhododendrons, and historically preserved villages offering a peek into an ancient way of life. The clear and breathtaking views of the Himalayas can also be a mesmerizing experience. The Druk (Dragon) Path trek is ideal for those interested in seeing Bhutan's rich culture and its stunning Himalayan vistas without committing to one of the more strenuous treks. This trek provides significant contact with the landscape and culture of this magical kingdom and is designed to maximize exposure to the countryside and provide views of Bhutan's most spectacular mountain scenery.

Bhutan is a unique country nestled between the Himalayas. With pristine landscape and unspoiled culture, a journey across the Himalayan kingdom is a truly remarkable experience. Bhutan has been successful in preserving its deeply rooted Buddhist traditions while slowly embracing modernity. The kingdom is also exemplary in its environmental protection with swaths of the country’s pristine forest preserved as national parks and reserves. On this guided tour, arrive in Paro, a picturesque valley dotted with farmhouses and crossed by the turquoise colored Pachu River. Then drive to Thimphu, the capital city, to explore the city’s numerous cultural landmarks. Head to Punakha where you will hike through villages and visit farmhouses. End the trip with a vigorous hike to the famous Tiger’s Nest Monastery and a nice traditional hot stone bath in a farmhouse afterwards. A fantastic conclusion to your stay in Bhutan.
