This is the shortest and the most direct
approach to Mt. Kailash and Mansarovar, best suited
for those on pilgrimage or for those whose time is limited.
We drive via Khasa (Zhangmu) through the southern route
to Mt. Kailash and Lake Mansarovar and return via the
same route back to Kathmandu.
Holy Mt. Kailash - Mansarovar tour and trek This adventure
begins with the drive across the Himalaya east into
Tibet to Holy Lake Mansarovar. Here you will join the
throngs of pilgrims who, for centuries, have converged
on this remote southwestern corner of Tibet to circumambulate
the sacred mountain, considered to be the center of
the universe by Hindus and Buddhist alike.
Ancient cosmography identifies Kailash with the mighty
mountain Sumeru, the central peck of the world. To Buddhist,
the "Father Mountain" represents the means
to enlightenment; Lake Mansarovar, the "mother
principle," represents transcendental consciousness.
Hindus consider Kailash to be the throne of Lord Shiva,
one of the three principle gods of the Hindu pantheon,
whose long, matted hair forms the holy Ganges River.
As a Bon center, Kailash enjoys great popularity the
folk religion of Tibet- it is the soul of the country
and assures protection for all Tibetans.
The fountain head of four bread Asian rivers, few mountain
reveals Kailash for its mystique, isolation and prominence
for 3 days, you will walk with pilgrims around this
almost perfectly symmetrical mountain and the sightseeing
of the ruins of lost Guge Kingdom Tholing and Tsaprang,
before the trek back into Nepal. Your trek pioneered
by Earthbound Expeditions takes you into the heart of
Nepal's highest district situated in the remote northern
riches of the country. Few trekkers have walked these
trials, unchanged over the ages. The encounter with
the herders, pilgrims and the local people will be lively
and make for precious memory. It is an experience of
a lifetime.
