About this journey
Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime spiritual expedition across the mystical land of Tibet with our 14 Days Lhasa, Everest Base Camp & Kailash Mansarovar Yatra. Carefully designed for pilgrims and adventure seekers, this journey combines sacred spirituality, breathtaking Himalayan landscapes, and high-altitude adventure.
The journey begins in Kathmandu, where pilgrims prepare for the yatra with temple visits including the sacred Pashupatinath Temple and Budhanilkantha. From here, a scenic flight takes you to Lhasa, the spiritual heart of Tibet, where you acclimatize and explore iconic landmarks such as the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, and Barkhor Street.
Traveling overland across the Tibetan plateau, you will witness some of the world’s most stunning प्राकृतिक landscapes—Yamdrok Lake, Korola Glacier, and high mountain passes—before reaching Shigatse and continuing towards the majestic Everest Base Camp (North Face). Here, experience awe-inspiring views of Mount Everest and visit the historic Rongbuk Monastery, the highest monastery in the world.
The spiritual highlight of the journey is the sacred Mount Kailash and Mansarovar Lake. Pilgrims take a holy dip in Lake Mansarovar and perform पूजा rituals before beginning the revered Kailash Parikrama (Kora)—a deeply spiritual trek believed to cleanse sins and bring inner transformation.
The parikrama takes you through challenging yet divine paths including Dirapuk, Dolma La Pass (5,700m), Gauri Kund, and Zuthulphuk, offering unmatched spiritual energy and Himalayan serenity.
Throughout the journey, travelers are supported with experienced guides, oxygen support, comfortable transportation, and carefully selected accommodations ranging from luxury hotels in cities to the best available lodges in remote regions.
This yatra is not just a journey—it is a test of faith, endurance, and devotion, offering a rare opportunity to connect deeply with the divine amidst the highest mountains on Earth.
With World Trade Travel & Tours Pvt. Ltd., experience this sacred pilgrimage with safety, expert management, and spiritual guidance every step of the way.
