Share

Kailash Mansarovar Tour via Lhasa (22,028 ft, 6,714 m), the famed holy peak,  Kailash Mansarovar Tour (Kailash Mansarovar Tour  Overland) is situated to the north of the Himalayan barrier in Western Tibet. This legendary snow-shrouded rock dome is one of the most revered pilgrimage sites for Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpos (Pre-Buddhists) and draws pilgrims from India, Nepal, Mongolia, Tibet, Japan, China, Southeast Asia and other parts of the world. At the slopes of Kailas, a stream is said to pour into Manasarovar and from this lake, flow four of Asia’s great rivers ­ the Indus, the Brahmaputra, the Karnali and the Sutlej.

For well over a thousand years, Mt. Kailash Mansarovar Tour via Lhasa, pilgrims have journeyed here to pay homage to the mountain’s mystery, circumnavigating it in a ritual that continues to this day. Their faith proclaims that not just the mountain’s ice-capped summit but the entire region is the abode of the Gods. 

This trek/tour will offer the unique type of trekking experience which takes you to Tibet’s mythical Mt. Kailash and Lake Manasarovar, via the hidden Humla valley in Nepal’s western most Tibetan frontier. Starting from Simikot, we continuously travel overland west along the mighty Zangpo River and over high passes to reach Mt. Kailash. There we take some time to make the ‘kora’ (holy-circuit) trek of the mountain sharing the trail with other pilgrims that journey to Mt. Kailash in the summer months. This extraordinary journey definitely gives us deep knowledge about the rich culture of the locals, their unique traditional lifestyle, spiritual odyssey as well as unforgettable trekking experience.

    Fitness:
    Kailash Manasarovar is at very high altitude, one should be appropriately equipped with proper paraphernalia and adequate medical checkups. Since it is a high altitude pilgrimage, Yatri’s are requested to consult family physician and get the following tests done-E.C.G., Blood Pressure, Hemoglobin, Blood Sugar etc.
    Apart from all these tests, the pilgrims are advised to start morning and evening walk, jogging, stretching, meditation and regular exercise in order to be in physically fit condition.

    Clothing:
    Casual wears and comfortable walking shoes are the rules of Tibet. Be sure to bring warm clothing as nights and early mornings can be quite chilly to downright cold. Indian Pilgrims strictly no Sari. Bring all the film, medicine, cosmetics, personal toilet items etc. that you will need from home as these are difficult if not impossible to obtain on the way. A small first aid kit is also a good idea. Also quite useful is a route map, to know where you are going and have been each day.

    What to take:
    Winter wear: Gore-Tex material, though expensive, is highly recommended. Down jacket, raincoat or windbreakers, thermal underwears, Jackets, warm trousers & woolen shirts (cotton will also do), warm sweaters, woolen gloves, sun hat, comfortable shoes, light leather boots in case of snow, woolen balaclava (‘monkey cap’) & scarf/dust mask to protect your eyes & nose from dust.

    Bring with you:
    Snacks along the way. Chocolates, dry fruit, toffees, glucose; ‘namkeen’ etc. Strong water bottle & water purifying tablets. Personal medical kit and Diamox tablet (for high altitude). Sunglasses (to protect your eyes from UV, which is especially strong in high altitudes). Sunblock or sunscreen lotion, wet tissues (Fresh-ones are excellent to wipe off the dust), clothes-line/clips, needle & thread, deo-spray (handy for smelly boots/feet and for a round of spray in the toilet tent!), toilet paper, torch & spare batteries, daypack (small shoulder bag), Camera & films, Binocular.

    Health Info:
    This is one of the toughest high altitude road journeys on earth. You Must be physically fit – no two ways about that. Generally, patients with asthma & heart problems have a problem acclimatizing to high altitudes. In your interests, it is essential you should be examined by your doctor to know about your health condition and your ability to cope up with the rigors of high altitude travel for days in ‘no road’ conditions, extreme cold, dust, trekking to an altitude of 19500ft during the Parikrama, etc.

    Altitude Sickness:
    As you are traveling over high terrain, you are likely to experience symptoms and discomfort of altitude sickness (a headache, loss of appetite, nausea, exhaustion, sleeplessness, breathlessness etc.) until your body adjusts to the elevation. This can take a couple of days or more depend on an individual. For this reason alone, we have made it mandatory to stay 1 nights at Parayang and a night in Hilsa those who take a journey of Helicopter before moving on to the higher altitudes. Drink plenty of water, be calm, and do not exercise. Do not drink alcohol or smoke prior to and during the tour. We also recommend you carry a strip of Diamox tablets. Do consult your physician on the dosage. We provide Gamow bag (a special equipment to prevent sickness from high altitude) on this tour.
