Druk Path Trek

The path called Druk, once kept apart from the visitors to avoid the Tibetan troops by Bhutanese government, now has invited the eyes waiting for the exploration of its unique culture, landscape and sparsely populated area. Druk Path has its own significance for the visitors. The peculiar high ridges that remain windy most of the time of the year, classic mountains with charming and enchanting bush of rhododendron, and historically preserved reminiscence of forts are the sights to watch. The clear and breathtaking views of the Himalayas can be an outlandish experience.
