11-Day Lhasa to Kailash Mansarovar Yatra Adventure

Mount Kailash (6638m) is one of the heavenly mountains in South Asia, accepted to be the habitation of Hindu Ruler Shiva. The Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bon Pa adherents of Mount Kailash are the four religions that share the mountain as their center. However, due to its remote location, Kailash receives few pilgrims annually. Mount Kailash is considered by adherents of the Hindu religion to be the location where Lord Shiva lives with his wife, Goddess Parvati, and other helpers. Moreover, Tibetans respect Mount Kailash as Kang Rimpoche (Ways of the Spirit), while the adherents of antiquated Bon Dad religion take Kailash to be the spirit of Tibet. Similarly, the Jain religion considers Mount Kailash to be Mount Ashtapada due to the belief that their saint Rishabanatha attained spiritual liberation there.     

Hindus believe that turning around Mount Kailash once will erase all of a person's past sins and cleanse them spiritually. Additionally, we will be able to break free from the never-ending cycle of life and death by making 108 circumambulations of Mount Kailash.

You will enjoy Mount Kailash and the surrounding natural landscape on our 11-day itinerary, which will take you to its remote lands. One of the highlights of the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra is Lake Manasarovar. We travel by helicopter for the majority of the distance. We will walk and take in the sights during the Kailash Parikrama spiritual walk and circumambulation. From the views from the helicopter to the cultural and spiritual splendor that lies between, this tour is absolutely stunning
