The most sacred pilgrimage of all — Mount Kailash, the abode of Shiva, and the holy lake Mansarovar. A fully supported, guided expedition for the serious seeker.
For many Hindus, Buddhists, Jains and Bonpos, Kailash is the holiest place on earth — and the parikrama around it, the journey of a lifetime.
This is a serious high-altitude expedition. We run it with full support — permits, acclimatisation days, oxygen, experienced guides and medical care — so your devotion is matched by genuine safety. Routes and permits depend on prevailing regulations; we advise the current options at booking.
