Common Questions

FAQ โ€” Kailash Mansarovar Yatra

What is the difference between the Lipulekh and Kathmandu routes? +
The Lipulekh route is the traditional India route โ€” it passes through Dharchula (our home) and is the most authentic. The Kathmandu route via Nepal offers more flexible dates. Both routes reach Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar.
Is the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra physically demanding? +
Yes โ€” the Kailash Parikrama covers 52km including a crossing of Dolma La Pass at 5,630m. This is a strenuous yatra. Good physical fitness, gradual acclimatisation and prior medical clearance are essential. Age limit: 18โ€“70 years.
What permits are needed? +
Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR) permit, China Group Visa, and Inner Line Permit for Lipulekh route. We arrange all permits. Processing takes 4โ€“6 weeks so book well in advance.
What is the cost? +
The Lipulekh and Kathmandu routes are priced on request as costs vary with group size and dates. The Aerial Darshan option is โ‚น53,000 per person. Contact us on WhatsApp for a personalised quote.
When is the best time for Kailash Mansarovar Yatra? +
June to September. September is the finest month โ€” post-monsoon crystal clear skies, stable weather, and the fewest pilgrims on the parikrama route.
