Mount Kailash Tour

Mount Kailash is a sacred mountain in Tibet that is considered a holy site by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpos (an indigenous religion of Tibet). The mountain is located in the western part of Tibet and is the source of four major rivers: the Indus, the Sutlej, the Brahmaputra, and the Karnali.

A Mount Kailash tour typically includes a trek around the mountain, which is known as a kora or parikrama, and is believed to bring spiritual benefits. The trek is usually done clockwise and takes about three days to complete, covering a distance of about 52 km (32 miles).

Some tour companies offer different types of tour packages such as, Helicopter tour, jeep tour, and horseback tour.

It is important to note that travel to Mount Kailash is restricted and requires a special permit, which can only be obtained through a tour company or agent. Additionally, the tour generally starts from Kathmandu, Nepal and Lhasa, Tibet, and it is necessary to have a valid Chinese visa to enter Tibet.

Makalu Base Camp Trek

 #MakaluBaseCampTrek #BookingOpen 2023

The #Makalu #Base Camp trek is a popular trekking route in the #Himalayas of Nepal that takes hikers to the base camp of Mount Makalu, the fifth highest mountain in the world. The trek is considered to be one of the more challenging routes in the region and is typically done by experienced hikers who are physically fit and well-equipped.

The trek usually takes around two weeks to complete, starting with a flight to #Tumlingtar and then making your way through a number of small villages, lush forests, and rugged terrains. Along the way, trekkers will have the opportunity to see a diverse array of flora and fauna and

will also pass by the beautiful #Barun river.

The highlight of the trek, of course, is reaching the base camp of Makalu, where the views of the mountain and the surrounding peaks are truly spectacular. The base camp itself is located at an altitude of around 5,000 meters (16,404 feet) above sea level, so altitude sickness is a real risk for trekkers and it's essential to take proper acclimatization and precautions.

It's recommendable to take a guide or a porter during this trek as the trail is not well marked, and the weather can change quickly, making navigation difficult. Also, during the trek, trekkers will pass through the Makalu Barun National Park, so entry permit is required.

If you are planning to do the Makalu Base Camp trek, it's important to be prepared for the physical demands of the trek and to be equipped with the right gear and supplies. Additionally, make sure to stay informed of the weather conditions and to be flexible with your itinerary in case of unexpected changes.
