Today, around the Darajat area also used as a recreation spot. There's many facilities that support the travelling and tourism activity, such as outbond, flyng fox, hot swimming pool, etc. And please do not forget the agriculture activity around the location is very-very awesome, what an erotic place, so natural.

  1. Benar sekali, saat ini kawasan Darajat, kec.Pasirwangi, Garut, menjadi daya tarik sendiri terutama untuk kawasan wisatanya.
    Terkadang, ketika hari libur, daerah ini pasti sangat padat. Apalagi ketika liburan panjang seperti lebaran atau tahun baru, kawasan ini sangat macet. Bahkan biasanya perjalanan dari Darajat menuju Garut bisa dicapai hanya 45 menit, ketika liburan bisa mencapai 4-6 jam lamanya karena macet.
    Semoga pemkab Garut bisa segera mengatasi masalah tersebut secepatnya...
