Welcome to Nepal! Upon landing at Tribhuvan International Airport, our representative will greet you and escort you to your hotel in Kathmandu. In the evening, attend a pre-yatra briefing with your guide. You may also take a short stroll through Thamel Market, known for its vibrant local life, shops, and cafés. Rest well before the spiritual journey ahead.

After breakfast, begin exploring the sacred and cultural landmarks of Kathmandu. Visit the Pashupatinath Temple, a revered shrine dedicated to Lord Shiva and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Continue to Budhanilkantha Temple, home to a stunning statue of reclining Lord Vishnu. Spend time visiting Tibetan monasteries for peace and reflection. Use the afternoon for final preparations for the Yatra.

Today, enjoy a scenic drive through the green hills of Nepal, passing quaint villages and river valleys. Drive through Dhunche and follow the roaring Trishuli River as you descend into Syabrubenshi, the final Nepalese settlement before the Tibet border.

After completing immigration formalities at Rasuwa Gadhi, enter Tibet and proceed toward the picturesque town of Kyirong. The landscapes dramatically shift into vast Tibetan plateaus, offering panoramic views of Himalayan valleys.

Enjoy a long but beautiful drive across Tibet. Witness the confluence of the Brahmaputra River, and stop for photographs at the pristine Paigu-Tso Lake. Continue through the desolate yet majestic Tibetan highlands to reach Saga, a quiet town serving as a vital rest point.

Today’s highlight is the sacred Lake Mansarovar. Believed to purify the soul, pilgrims perform a Parikrama (circumambulation) of the lake by vehicle and collect its holy waters. The breathtaking views of Mount Kailash from here mark a spiritual crescendo in the journey.

After performing puja and meditation at Lake Mansarovar, drive to Darchen, the base camp for the Mount Kailash trek. Spend the evening resting or preparing for the upcoming Parikrama.

The Mount Kailash Parikrama begins today. Drive to Yam Dwar, the starting point of your spiritual trek. Undertake a 12 km trek to Dirapuk, surrounded by towering peaks and the surreal beauty of Mount Kailash’s northern face.

Today is the most challenging yet spiritually fulfilling part of the trek. Ascend to Dolma La Pass (5530 m), the highest point of the Yatra. Along the descent, pass by the sacred Gauri Kund, known in mythology as the bathing place of Parvati. Continue your trek to Zuthulphuk for the night.

Conclude your Kailash Parikrama with a short trek to Chongdo, where vehicles await. Drive back via Darchen and continue to Dongba or Saga, enjoying the comfort of lower altitude.

Retrace your route through the high Tibetan plains, returning to Kyirong. Take this day to relax and reflect on your divine journey amidst tranquil surroundings.

Cross back into Nepal at Rasuwa Gadhi, and drive through the scenic valleys of Langtang to return to Kathmandu. Check in to your hotel and enjoy a well-earned rest.

After breakfast, our team will transfer you to the airport for your onward journey. Depart with spiritual memories and renewed inner peace.
