OVERVIEW :
Kailash Trek: Mount Kailash (Kangrinpoche) is situated in the Western part of the Tibet. It has been considered sacred by Buddhists, Hindus, Jains and Bompons for thousands of the years. For the Hindus and Buddhists, it is the center of the universe. A pilgrimage to the mountain and trek round it, is such a supreme goal for the faithful. Kailash trek is easy to understand how after, walking overland for weeks or months, they feel, they are really approaching the center of the universe since ancient times.
Mt. Kailash has been revered as the source of four of the great rivers of the Asia, fuelled by the waters of nearby holy lake Manasarovar. Rivers Indus, Brahmaputra (Tsangpo), Karnali (The sacred Ganges) have their sources within sixty miles of the mountain. One can reach this centre of the universe by joining our group or making separate tours/ treks.
Manasarovar Lake: The great lake Mansarovar is situated in the south-west corner of Tibet and in the north-west of Nepal. It beyond high Himalayas which borders Nepal and China. Tibetan plateau in itself is unique in its geographic makeup with its fauna and flora and mythical setup of ecosystem. The lake is 20 kms from Mt.Kailash and is one of the most beautiful and sacred lake in Asia. It can be circumambulated in four or five days. It is often a gem like cobalt blue color but during storm, it can turn into a churning black sometimes.
According to Hindu and Buddhist epics, the four great rivers of the Indian subcontinent, the Indus, Ganga, Sutlej and Brahmaputra actually arise from Mansarovar. In reality, only the Sutlej originates from the lake. Mansarover has been circumambulated by the Indian pilgrims at least since being extolled in the sacred Sanskrit literature called the Puranas around 1700 years ago. Legends has that the mother of Buddha, Mayadevi was bathe at Mansarovar.
