This 10-day spiritual journey takes you to Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar, a pilgrimage deeply revered in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Bon. The journey begins in Lucknow, from where you travel to Nepalgunj, the gateway to western Nepal. A scenic flight then takes you to Simikot, followed by a thrilling helicopter ride to Hilsa, and onward into Tibet.
In Purang, you acclimatize before reaching the sacred Mansarovar Lake, where devotees perform rituals and take a holy dip believed to cleanse all sins. From there, you continue to Darchen, the base for the famed Kailash Parikrama.
The trek to Diraphuk and over the challenging Dolma La Pass (5550m) is both spiritually and physically demanding, offering divine views of the north face of Mount Kailash and the mythical Gauri Kund.
