MOUNT KAILASH "PRECIOUS JEWEL OF THE
SNOW"
Duration : 16
Days 15 Nights
Months : March-May/ September-February
Mt. Kailash at the elevation of 6,714 m,
is the most sacred
mountain in Asia with four religious segments considering
it holy. For Hindus it is the abode of Lord Shiva. For
Tibetans it is the Rinpoche, for Jains the place where its
religious leader achieved spiritual liberation and for
followers of Bon - po
the soul of Tibet. This is unusually
beautiful mountain with an equally exceptional Manasarovar
Lake. The trek passes wild crossing streams, high snow
covered passes and vast plains. It is a simply
unforgettable Journey.
To Manasarovar come Hindus, to drink of its holy water to
shed the sins of a hundred lifetimes. To circumscribe the
mountain come Tibetans, earnest in their belief that a
single circuit will cleanse them of the sins of a lifetime
and a 108 such will ensure the attainment of enlightenment
in this lifetime
