Bhutan, The Dragon Route
Welcome to the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon. Located in the eastern Himalayas, Bhutan borders China and India and this Buddhist kingdom of the Himalayas, portrays and mixes the best way history, culture, nature and spectacular landscapes. It is one of the most inaccessible countries for general tourism and even more difficult to visit on a motorcycle since it is impossible to do it independently. Closed to tourism until a few years ago, the government imposes a minimum daily expenditure of $ 250 per person to avoid mass tourism. It is the only State that does not base its level on GDP, but on the Gross National Happiness Index. Its festivals, colors, music and mountain roads make this destination a fascinating country to discover for every biker. Its roads in good general condition, stimulate safe motorcycle trips through countless curves, forests and high mountain ports. The smile and kindness of the people is something exceptional.
The Kingdom that you only imagined could exist.
On this Royal Enfield motorcycle trip we will cross Bhutan from West to East, going in and out of the two borders with India in the states of Sikkim and Assam. The trip covers about 1000 kms, most of them by paved road.
