Mt. Kailash & Lake Manasarovar |
This
is for those who only want the south west of Tibet - no
time is devoted to Lhasa on this trip. Complete a kora
around Mount Kailash plus a stay of two nights at the
side of Lake Manasarovar with many pray. This itinerary
provides the chance to circumambulate the single most
sacred place on earth and is best suited to those on a
pilgrimage. The trip is open to all, it does not matter
what your beliefs are, as long as you respect other
beings.
In the far west of Tibet is Mt Kailash, the most sacred
mountain in Asia, which is venerated by Buddhists,
Hindus, and previously the ancient Bon religion of
Tibet. Mt Kailash is an important site for Buddhist and
Hindu pilgrims who make a 53km circuit, of the mountain.
Buddhists and Hindus circumambulate clockwise and its
anti-clockwise for Bon followers. To circumambulate once
is said to erase the sins of a lifetime. The mountain
itself is 6714m high and with its four sheer walls and
snow capped peak is an awe-inspiring sight as you hike
around its base.
On this trip, we drive from Kathmandu to the Tibet
border at Zhangmu. Then drive across the wide open
spaces of the Tibet Plateau to Lake Manasarovar and Mt
Kailash. From there we retrace our route to Kathmandu,
enjoying once again the arid beauty of the vast plains.
This is truly the trip of a lifetime (except for those
who repeat it each year, Hi Greg) with its stunning
scenery and cultural highlights. You need to be
conditioned to hard hiking / trekking over a number of
days. Although we make it as easier by providing yaks to
carry your main baggage while trekking. And for your
safety we provide a portable compression chamber and a
supply of oxygen to treat altitude sickness.
