With years of experience, Himalayan Asia Treks and Expedition P Ltd is operating a pilgrimage tour to the holy sites in the Tibetan plateau as Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by road 2023-2024. This Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by road offers a unique voyage experience at high altitudes in a serene part of the world. Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar Yatra is a dream tour for almost all devout pilgrims, as this place holds the most significant values amongst the Hindus. Pilgrims of Buddhist religions also equally venerate these holy sites. Lake Mansarovar and Mt. Kailash don’t only have religious significance but are indeed heaven on earth. The landscapes, the turquoise lake, and the stunning display of the mountains in the background are the most admirable shows at this high altitude. This holy journey to Mt. Kailash and Lake Mansarovar is just a unique once-in-a-lifetime tour experience.

Our Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 2023-2024 starts with a full-day Kathmandu heritage and pilgrimage sightseeing tour. In this itinerary, we will set off the journey toward Tibet on the third day of arrival. Our overland journey takes us to the northwest Nepal-China border at Syabrubesi. With a night halt in Syabru, we will cross the border the next morning, clearing immigration formalities, and head for Kyirong. At Kyirong, we will acclimatize to the climate and altitude that day and prepare for our further trip to the larger size the next day. From Kyirong, we will proceed to Saga, stay overnight, and continue to Lake Mansarovar (Chu Gompa) the following day. Finally, we will circumambulate the holy lake Mansarovar and stop there for our worship and Havana. The next day, we will drive to Darchen, from where we continue to Yama Dwar, also known as the gateway to Mt. Kailash. Our trek (walking) part of this tour begins from Yama Dwar, and we will be trekking for three days. The first day is a trek to Deraphuk through the ascending trail of rubbles and pebbles. The second day is a bit tough to reach Zuthulphuk, where we will get to the highest point of the trek Dolma-La Pass at 5600m. Crossing this pass, we will start to descend through Gauri Kunda. After a steep descent, we will reach our pick-up point at the base, from where we will catch our vehicle and drive to Lake Mansarovar via Darchen. People who didn’t join this Kailash Kora (circumambulation) will pick them up and continue to go towards Saga. From Saga to Kyirong and cross the border clearing immigration once again to enter Nepal. It will take a full day drive, around 8-10 hours, to reach Kathmandu, which will include our tour.

Despite the trekking part being challenging, one can still choose to stay at Darchen to get the Mt. Kailash view or stay at Lake Mansarovar and wait. However, travelers who dared Kora can have a beautiful stunning view of Mt. Kailash up close while on the trek, which is sure to relieve them from the exhausting journey. This Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by road is just a lifetime experience, so why not join our group for this holiest overland journey towards Mount Kailash and Mansarovar Lake Himalayan Asia Treks has started the tour registration for the booking of Mount Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by road 2023-2024.
