Specilized group only for men

Holy Mount Kailash
The most sacred mountain in the Tibetan Buddhist world is also considered by many to be the centre of the universe. Uncannily symmetrical, this remote and remarkable peak is located in the far west of Tibet, 1200 km from Lhasa. Mt. Kailash (6714m) is not only geographically one of the most important mountains in Asia, it is also the source of four major rivers, namely, the Indus, Sutlej, Karnali and Tsang Po which nourish Asia with water. In Sanskrit Kailash means ‘luminous crystal’. Hindus believe Mt. Kailash to be the abode of Lord Shiva and his wife Parvati. Tibetan Buddhists call the mountain Kang Rinpoche, the ‘Jewel of Snow’, and regard it as the body mandala of Korlo Demchog and his consort, Dorje Phagmo (Chakrasambhava and Vajrayogini). A pilgrimage to this great sacred and magical landscape is the most precious of pilgrimages for both Tibetan and Indian people, a journey they hope to experience at least once in a lifetime.


The journey to Tibet is arranged on a meditative context (pilgrimage). The core of this journey is an unhurried four-day circuit trek (kora) among Tibetan pilgrims around holy Mt. Kailash followed by a rest day at beautiful Lake Manasarovar. During the best time of the year, we enjoy silence and nature, spectacular panoramic views, as well as interaction within the group.

Expedition or Inner Purification
All trips to Mt. Kailash have expedition character. Long treks in high altitute needs special attention. Long drives on dirt roads require a lot of patience, tolerance and little expectations. In return we will see some of the most untouched and beautiful landscapes and we are likely to meet genuinely nice people.

A pilgrimage through vast open spaces may cause deep personal inner experiences. It could be, that ‘undigested issues’ from the past comes up. Therefore, this journey is generally quite the opposite of a usual holiday or trek, where one seeks to forget about home and past. The journey tends to bring up past memories and you may find yourself taking a conscious look at events in your life and realise how much one is connected with everything.
