Kailash Mansarovar Yatra with Muktinath Darshan begins in Kathmandu with a visit to Pashupatinath Temple, where you do Rudra Abhishek Puja and Hawan. Then, you board a short and scenic flight to Pokhara. From Pokhara, you take a flight to Jomsom and drive to the Muktinath Temple. Here, you bathe under the holy 108 water spouts and perform rituals and prayers. Then, you return to Pokhara and explore major sites such as Devi’s Fall, Gupteshowor Cave, Tal Barahi Temple and experience a peaceful boat ride on Phewa Lake.
The finalization of visas and permits marks the beginning of the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra. You start the yatra with a drive from Kathmandu to Kyirong via Rasuwagadhi(the Nepal-Tibet border). You spend the day in Kyirong for acclimatization. Then, you continue the Kailash journey with a drive to Saga and eventually to Lake Mansaorvar. Here, you will witness the first breathtaking view of Mt. Kailash. You will also take a bath in the holy water from the lake. Then, you move to Darchen for the Kailash Parikrama.
The three-day Kailash Kora starts with a hike to Dirapuk. From here, you see Mount Kailash’s south, west, and north faces. The second day of the Kailash Kora includes crossing the highest point of the Kora, Dolma La Pass (5645 meters). After the pass, you descend to Zuthul puk, and on the third day, the Parikrama ends with a return to Darchen. Then, you drive to Saga, Kyirong, and finally to Kathmandu.
You can also elaborate your Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage with the Kailash Inner Kora Trek if you would like to experience Mt. Kailash's magical aura closer. Kailash Inner Kora is tough compared to the regular outer kora. Only experienced trekkers can complete it, so we suggest researching more about Kailash Inner Kora and Outer Kora before you choose to go.
