Manasarovar Trekking Overview
Mt Kailash has always been regarded as a pilgrimage. It satisfies the romantic in us that the pilgrimage to Kailash is a difficult one.
In May 1993 the government of Nepal and China Tibet reached an accord that allowed the first treks across the border between the two countries. While it had been a route for Nepalese pilgrims for years, foreign trekkers were never allowed to trek from Nepal into Tibet.
It has always been possible the rules. A trip to Mt Kailash has always been regarded as a pilgrimage tour in Tibet. It satisfies the romantic in us that the pilgrimage to Kailash is a difficult one. Whether you drive for seven days or walk for six days, it is still not possible to make a quick, easy visit to Kailash and Manasarovar. You cannot yet travel all the way to Kailash by helicopter or airplane, it is all by with over land transport. This is certainly as it should be.
