Kailash Manasarovar Yatra
Overview
The diamond-shaped mountain in the western Himalayan ranges of the Tibetan Autonomous Region, Mount Kailash, standing magnificently at an elevation of 6638 m, is believed to be one of the holiest mountains in the world that meets ancient spirituality with awe-inspiring landscapes.
The 30-million-year-old mountain range formed during the early stages of the formation of the Himalayan mountains is said to be the sacred abode of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. The mountain has extreme significance in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Bon. The region also houses the largest freshwater lake, the Manasarovar Lake, at an altitude of 4590 m, which is immensely pristine and carries massive spiritual relevance. The lake expands across an area of approximately 412 sq. km. and is not so far from the mighty Mount Kailash. The lake stands out as the purest water body, as pure as sapphire, which extends visitors the look into the deeper points of the lake. The route of the amazing trip starts with a beautiful bus ride from Kathmandu to the Nepal-China border at Kyirung.

FAQs about Kailash Manasarovar Yatra
The accommodations during the trip are more of www.holyhimalaya.com (our hotel in Kathmandu) standard, which is considered moderate (3 stars). The Holy Himalaya (Eco Trek) will take care of the overnight stays throughout the Yatra. In the towns, especially Kiyrung, Saga, Paryang, and Darchen, the accommodations will be selected in the high-end hotels with nice and cosy beds and bath rooms with hot and cold shower facilities. In the key destinations of Yatra, especially Holy Lake, Parikrama Days (for 3 nights), and in the border towns of Nepal, accommodation will be more basic (there is no choice). Even on basic ground sharing, the beds are covered with warm blankets (throughout the yatra), and on top of the blankets you can wear down jackets or innerwear, so there is nothing to fret about the cold nights in the lap of the holy Kailash.
There are plenty of restaurants that serve Chinese menus and food with a variety of flavors. But for the specially focused Hindu Yatri, we have a self-catering team that follows your needs while you are at high altitude. Since 1992, the team at the Holy Himalaya has provided healthy foods that are needed to conquer the Kailash Manasarovar Yatra.

There are two ways to reach Tibet and get closer to the holy Mount Kailash. All three are equally scenic and beautiful and are very peaceful, making travellers more curious and impatient to feel the spiritual energy of Kailash. By Road: The first one is by road. The drive from Kathmandu, Syabrubesi, Timmure, and finally Kyirung has diverse landscapes and cultural aspects that are totally different from one another (Nepal and Tibet). The natural resources, inhabitants, and traditions vary slowly as we ascend to the Tibet region. The hilly region of Nepal is greener, with rivers and rivulets flowing from all the gorges, terrace farming, and lush vegetation. The elevation, or Tibet part, is more of a dry plateau with very little vegetation and greenery and more sandy hills. The Brahmin, Chettri, and general Aryans are seen in the hilly regions of Nepal before Syabrubesi, and gradually you can see mongoloid faces as you ascend to the Nepal-Tibet borders and Tibet region. By Air: You can fly to Lhasa, Nagri (Ali), and visit holy destinations within a week if timing is not a key issue. Using a helicopter all the way to the Nepal border town is another option if you wish for more comfort, but day-wise, it does not help that much to reduce the Yatra duration. Altitude Air is one of the best helicopters to use in the mountains of Nepal. The helicopter route is the easiest, safer, and fastest way, allowing travellers more time and energy to reach Kailash Parbat, despite the helicopter’s high cost compared to the road.
