    If you are hiking up to Tiger’s Nest and want to avoid the usually congested trail and take on a more adventurous approach, then this route is for you. A detour close to the starting point of the popular trail presents a completely different route that will allow for you to visit monasteries above Tiger’s Nest, too. This underused trail has more nature to offer compared to the popular route and takes you through some spectacular alpine forests. Different perspective of Tiger’s Nest unfolds periodically as you approach your destination. This trail is not used anymore. Chances will be that you are the only one on it.

    Believed to be the highest vegetable producer in Bhutan because of its perfect weather condition and the soil structure, Tsirang is also the first district to go 100 percent organic. The chemical fertilizers are not used at all in the region for any purpose. They use the traditional method such as animal manure to fertilize the soil and ash to control the acidity of the soil. The products from this district are highly demanded all around the country and are also priced a bit higher than other products because of their freshness.
