Frequently Asked Questions
When is the best time to visit Mount Kailash?expand_more
The best time to visit Mount Kailash is from May to October. The weather is relatively stable, and visibility is good. However, avoid the monsoon season (July-August) if you dislike rain, although in Tibet, rain usually occurs at night. The Saga Dawa festival in May/June is a particularly auspicious time.
How difficult is the Kailash Kora trek?expand_more
The Kailash Kora is a high-altitude trek, with the highest point at Dolma La Pass (5,630m). It is physically demanding due to the altitude and requires a good level of fitness. We recommend training beforehand and acclimatizing properly in Lhasa before starting the trek.

You will need several permits: the Tibet Travel Permit (TTP), Alien's Travel Permit, and the Military Permit for the Ngari region. As a registered tour operator, we handle all these permit applications for you as part of the tour package.
Is accommodation available during the trek?expand_more
Yes, there are basic guesthouses at the Dirapuk and Zutulpuk monasteries along the Kora route. Conditions are basic, usually dormitory style without private bathrooms. We ensure you stay in the best available options.
