Kailash Manasarovar Yatra 13 Days (Indian National)
Overview
Here is your chance to make the once in a lifetime journey to Mount Kailash the most sacred of all mountains. This 13 Day overland tour starting from Kathmandu is our most popular and affordable Kailash Yatra. Our tour starts with a day of sightseeing in Kathmandu before we make the land journey from Nepal to China via the Kerung Border. Leaving Kathmandu we will head to Syabrubesi a small village at the base of the Langtang Range where we will spend the night. The next morning we cross the border and two days are spent travelling with stops in Gyirong Town and Saga. Leaving Saga we will travel to Manasarovar Lake and spend the night. Lake Manasarovar is a holy lake fed by the glaciers of Kailash and guests will have time for puja and to circle the lake by vehicle. The next morning we will again take rituals at the lake before continuing on a short drive Darchen for the night. The trek starts the next day as we hike to Dirapuk (4860m) and have great views of the north face of Kailash. The second day of trekking is the most difficult part of the journey as we cross the Dolma La Pass (5670m). The third and last day of trekking is a short one and will leave us time to drive back to Saga. We continue from Saga back to Kathmandu over the course of two days.
