Kailash Manasarovar Trek with EBC-17 Days

Trip Introduction

In Tibet, Mount Kailash is known as Kang Rinpoche or the Precious Jewel of Snow. It is the Kailash range’s highest summit. It is located at a height of 6,638 meters (21,778 feet). It is located in western Tibet and is a part of the Trans-Himalaya. It has a profound spiritual importance for Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bons. It is believed by Hindus to be Lord Shiva’s home. Tibetan Buddhists believe that Kailash is where the Buddha Demchok, who represents Supreme Harmony, lives.

Kailash, also known as Mount Ashtapada in Jainism, is the point where Rishabhadera, the faith’s founder, obtained independence from the cycle of life and rebirth. According to Hindu belief, the lake was first created in Lord Brahma’s thoughts. As a result, it is known as Manasarovar in Sanskrit, which is a combination of the words “Manas” Mind and “Sarovar Lake.”Manasarovar, with a height of 4,576m/15,015ft, is only a few kilometers away from Mount Kailash. It is believed to cleanse the sins of this life as well as all previous lifetimes. Everest Base Camp is the first base camp of Mount Everest, which opened in the 1920s and is located in the southwest of Tibet. Every year, thousands of tourists travel to Tibet in the hopes of catching a sight of Mount Everest, the world’s highest peak.

A 6–7-hour journey from Kathmandu to Nyalam begins off the 17-day trip. From there, there will be a 4 to 5 Hours trip to Tingri. The Everest base camp region will take you from the modern Tibetan capital of Lhasa to pristine high-altitude lakes, rivers, glaciers, farming valleys, and through the Himalayas to the Everest base camp region at Rongphu monastery at roughly 5100 meters/ 17000 feet. Further, you’ll continue to the vast dry and barren country that leads to the Sacred Mansarovar at the foot of Mount Kailash, where we’ll visit and have a pilgrimage walk before crossing the Dorma La High Pass at an elevation of 5,470m/17,946ft. We will descend to Barkha valley and return to Kathmandu after admiring Mount Kalisha and Mansarovar.
