Mt Kailash and Everest base camp Tour

Mount Kailas: (6,714 m) claimed to be the apex of the Hindu religious axis is also one of the highest mountain in western Tibet .For thousands of years the Kailash area has been held sacred by Hindus, Buddhists and followers of Bon (Tibet's indigenous religion). Pilgrims carry out devotional circumbulation (Parikarma) here. It is believed that just a single Parikarma around Mt. Kailash can remove your sins of a lifetime while 108 Parikarmas will achieve Salvation (Mukti).
In the descriptions of this numinous mountain, Hindus consider it to be the Lord Shiva's Throne. Lord Shiva sits in eternal paradise, the long strands of his matted hair falling and flowing all about him. The holy Ganges River is said to emanate from one of these strands.
Buddhists identify Kailash with the Mighty Mt. Sumeru, as the religious symbol to consciousness and enlightenment.
As per Bon religion Mt. Kailash is the soul of the country and assures perpetuity and protection On the other hand Lake Manasarovar at 14,950 feet (4,558 M) is said to be the highest fresh water lake in the world which is sprawled below Mt. Kailash. It is believed that a ritual bath will deliver a pilgrim to Brahma's paradise and a drink of its water relinquishes the sins of a hundred lifetimes.
Further, The Indus, Sutlej, Ganges and Yarlong Tsangpo (Brahmapppputra) rivers, all originate on and around Mt.Kailash.

To travel for days on this remote plateau with the chance encounters of nomads herding their sheep or yaks is to be transformed into another way of life, to see and become part of such a devout pilgrimage as shown by pilgrims around MT. Kailash and Lake Manasarovar is overwhelming and a life time experience.

After visiting the Lake Mansarover and Holy Mt Kailas Trek drive Back to Everest direction via Parayang/Saga and famo

Manuela Müller and Sabrina Wey - Switzerland.

Dear Himal and Team
Greeting from Switzerland,
A big "thank you" for the great trekking experience! All the way and time we felt really comfortable, from the first second until the end. And this belongs to the hearty care taking group. We had so much fun and a lot of laughs with you guys! Even in hard times and the bad case situation (like an evacuation handled without losing the mind but with calmness and clear actions) everything was very well organized: it couldn\'t have been any better in Switzerland! Knowledge, experience, organization and strength of purpose as well as precision, meet together with flexibility, spontaneity, humor and empathy as well as compassion, this is what I call a great performance! This is trekking with VISIT HIMALAYA TREKS Pvt.Ltd (www.high-himalaya.com) All this mixed with respect, tolerance, an open mind and a deep cordiality is a performance on the highest level and what made this trip absolutely unique and unforgettable for us.

Hettie van Eijck and Herman Verschuren - Nederland

Just back from the Langtang-Gosainkund-Helambu trek, organized by Visit Himalaya Treks. It was fantastic! We were very happy with guide Man Kumar and porter Kumar. Compliments for Himal and his team. They were accurate, reliable and communicative. By inviting us in his home, he made the attention very personal. Himal even brought us to the airport, five days after finishing the trek. Excellent service. We heartily recommend Visit Himalaya Treks!

Namaste Himal,
Thanks for the well organized trek to Kala Patthar and Everest Base Camp. For me it was a 'once in a lifetime' experience which I'll never forget. The way you and your team operate is fantastic. You're very professional. Your knowledge of the treks, your friendly approach towards your clients, it makes trekking with your company great fun. Pasang was a very good guide who didn't only know his way in the mountains, during the many hours we walked together, he told me a lot about your culture and the Nepali traditions as well. I wish you and your team good luck and maybe, hopefully, we'll meet again! Kind regards,

Eva Meier - Germany

- Hi Himal, I really enjoyed my stay in Nepal. The nature is unbelievable beautiful. The trek absolutely is doable in those 12 days Jomsom Muktinath trek. Rajan is a very nice guy. He's doing his job very well, always takes care of me. Kabi is amazing carrying my luggage. I still don't know how he can do this. If he could speak a little better English then I'm sure he's a fun guy to have around. I can totally recommend Visit Himalaya Treks. I wish you, your family, Rajan and Kabi and their families a great time and all the best wishes!

David and Fiona - UK

We have just returned from 23 days (October 01-2011 to October 23-2011) on trek with Himal and his team, taking in both Dhaulagiri and Annapurna base camps. This was our third trek with Himal and it was every bit as special as the others. His organization, attention to detail and real care for his clients and the porters are excellent. It is an indication of our complete satisfaction with Visit Himalaya Treks that we are already discussing with Himal another trek for next October.
