Overview


Experience the divine Kailash Mansarovar Yatra like never before—swift, safe, and comfortable by helicopter.

The Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by helicopter offers a remarkable journey to Mount Kailash (6,638 m) and Lake Mansarovar (4,550 m), situated in the Tibet Autonomous Region. This pilgrimage site holds profound significance for Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and followers of Bon alike. Mount Kailash, revered as the spiritual center of the universe, is an iconic peak that remains untouched by climbers, preserving its sanctity and mystical allure through the ages. Also Lake Mansarovar is one of the highest freshwater lakes globally, believed to be the source of four major rivers: the Indus, Sutlej, Brahmaputra, and Karnali. For many spiritual seekers around the world, it is considered the abode of Lord Shiva.

 

Completing the Kora (parikrama) around Kailash is a deeply spiritual journey that pilgrims believe can erase a lifetime’s sins. Further, the route travels through the stunning landscapes of Nepal and Tibet, blending breathtaking Himalayan beauty with enriching spiritual traditions. Opting for the helicopter route is perfect for those who wish to undertake the yatra without the physical strain of long treks while still immersing themselves in the sacred atmosphere of Kailash.

 

Scenic Helicopter Ride Over the Himalayas from Simikot to Hilsa

The helicopter journey presents awe-inspiring aerial views of snow-capped Himalayan peaks and secluded valleys, offering a rare glimpse of these majestic landscapes. Additionally it ensures a safe and efficient crossing from Nepal into Tibet at high altitudes.

 

Holy Lake Mansarovar

This revered lake, one of the highest freshwater bodies on Earth, invites ritual bathing and meditation. Pilgrims believe that immersing themselves in its pristine waters cleanses sins and purifies the soul, making it a sacred spot for traditional prayers and offerings in accordance with Hindu and Buddhist customs.

 

Mount Kailash Parikrama (Kora)

The 52 km trek around Mount Kailash is an essential part of the pilgrimage, taking three days to complete and providing spiritual purification. Walking the Kora wipes away past sins and bestows blessings and enlightenment, as the path passes culturally significant sites, including Yamadwar (the Gate of Death) and ancient monasteries.

 

Crossing the Drolma La Pass (5,650 m)

The most challenging section of the Kora trek involves a steep ascent to the highest point. This crossing not only demands physical endurance but also symbolizes overcoming life’s obstacles and rebirth in spiritual journeys while rewarding trekkers with breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and Mount Kailash.
