TRIP OVERVIEW

Mt. Kailash (6714m), Asia's holiest mountain, is situated in a remote and high-altitude region of West Tibet. It is one of three pilgrimage sites in the area known as Kangri Tsosum jointly. All are reported to be located in the ancient Shangshung kingdom, the pre-Buddhist Bonpos' alleged homeland. Mt Kailash, also known as Yungdrung Gu Tse, or the Nine-story Swastika Mountain, is their soul-mountain.

It is a 53-km pilgrim path around Mt. Kailash. It begins and ends at Darchen, a small settlement at the mountain south base, and in the process visits four monasteries cross the high Drolma La Pass (5636m). Three days is perhaps the minimum time required to walk leisurely around the mountain: spend two nights in or near Dira Phuk and Zutrul Phuk Monasteries. If conditions permit, try to stay four or five days, which would allow time for short trips to the inner regions of the area.

(Note: Itinerary may vary according to the change in weather and transportation.)
