Per PersonThe hardest and most popular pilgrimage is the Kailash Inner Kora (parikrama). Youll need some mountaineering expertise and gear for the Kailash Inner Parikrama. We offer competent and knowledgeable mountaineering personnel. A 34 km foot trek is required for the inner parikrama, which also includes stops at Asthapath, Nandi Parvat, Atmalingam, Saptarishi Cave, and Rakshas Lingam. Rock, fissures, snow, and ice make up the entire landscape. There are only two modest monasteries along the Inner Kailash regions length. For the Kailash Inner Kora Trip, we will camp in a tent with space for sleeping, eating, and drinking along with other requirements.
The Inner Kora (parikrama) of Mount Kailash begins and concludes at Darchen. We will begin our journey on the first day from Derapuk, stopping at Kailash Charan Sparsa; in the days that follow, we will explore the Serlung monastery and gain a better perspective of Mount Kailash from here. Touch the Atmalingam, the Ice Lingam, and the Saptarishi Cave of the Inner Kora. We will return to Darchen by dark after completing the inner Kailash kora of Nandi Parvat by traversing the high Nandi La and Khandosalgam La (Pass) passes that separate Mount Kailash and Nandi Hill. After finishing your inner kora at Kailash, you can resume your journey to Juthulpuk from Derapuk, KuberKunda, and Mount Kailash Charan Sparsa.

High altitudes pose challenges like lower oxygen levels, inducing symptoms such as headaches, nausea, lethargy, and breathlessness. These affect everyone, regardless of age or fitness. Acclimatization is crucial; avoid tranquilizers and antibiotics. Slow down activities, rest frequently, and reduce talking. Walk slowly, keep loads light, and observe silence with a smile. Consume liquids, avoid sudden exertion, and protect against cold. Don't bathe in streams, protect against dust and sun, and follow experienced guides. Prioritize rest, hydration, and warm clothing during winter.
Wi-Fi will be accessible in Kathmandu, but as we venture into the more secluded regions of Nepal, connectivity will be restricted. The tour guide will carry a satellite phone for emergency communication. Wi-Fi connection is more accessible in the Tibet region as well, while there are no such facilities in Mansarovar, and during the Parikrama.
Options for e-sims are widely available in supported devices for cellular data, while mainstream social media including WhatsApp and Facebook are prohibited in China. The use of VPNs may allow for seamless communication with family back home.
During May to September, temperatures in Nepal and Tibet range from 10 to 22°C during the day. Despite the moderate daytime temperatures, the intense sun at high altitudes can create a much warmer sensation. Nighttime temperatures may drop significantly, reaching as low as -5°C.
As altitude increases, the body requires time to adapt to lower oxygen levels through a process known as acclimatization. Proper acclimatization is crucial for maintaining health and ensuring a comfortable journey at high altitudes. Most individuals are affected by the reduced oxygen levels at elevations exceeding 2,500 meters. Diamox (Acetazolamide) has proven to be highly effective in facilitating acclimatization and countering High Altitude Sickness. Further details will be provided closer to the journey.
Please consult your doctor and undergo a medical examination before embarking on the Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar yatra. Given the high altitudes, it is advisable to begin exercises such as walking, jogging, yoga, and breathing exercises at least a month prior to ensure a successful journey.
The Touch Kailash Team will be providing a Duffel Bag, a 25l Backpack, and a Down Jacket (on a refundable basis), upon your arrival in Kathmandu.
