<\/span><\/h2>\nQ-1: What is the best time to visit Mount Kailash?
\n<\/strong>Ans:<\/strong> Autumn (September to October) and Spring\u00a0(May\u00a0to\u00a0June) are the best time to visit Mount Kailash, offering stunning views, high visibility, and comfortable temperatures. You should avoid traveling during the monsoon due to heavy rain and slippery paths.<\/p>\nQ-2: Can you climb Mount Kailash?
\n<\/strong>Ans:<\/strong> No, you\u2019re not allowed to climb Mount Kailash as it is considered to be sacred by followers of different religions. The fear of trespassing the mountain\u2019s sanctity and disturbing the divine energies that reside there makes it unclimbable as it is believed to be the abode of Lord Shiva.<\/p>\nQ-3: How difficult is the Mount Kailash Yatra?
\n<\/strong>Ans:<\/strong> The Mount Kailash yatra is difficult as it involves dealing with changing weather conditions, trekking rugged terrains, and acclimatizing yourself to the high altitude. The trek is quite challenging as it includes difficult descents and ascents, especially throughout the 52-kilometer circumambulation of Mount Kailash.<\/p>\nQ-4: What is the cost of the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra?
\n<\/strong>Ans:<\/strong> The Kailash Mansarovar Yatra cost depends on different factors. You need a Tibet visa fee and a Tibet travel permit, which makes the trip a bit expensive. Depending on the size of the group, the price of the yatra will be USD 2750 per person for a group comprising more than 25 people. For a private group comprising 11 to 16 people, the Yatra will cost USD 3500 per person.<\/p>\nQ-5: What permits are required for Kailash Mansarovar Yatra?
\n<\/strong>Ans:<\/strong> Since Kailash Mansarovar is situated in Tibet and travel is restricted you need to obtain different types of entry permits from the concerned authorities in Tibet and Lhasa. Such permits can\u2019t be obtained by travellers directly and you need to join a group tour and apply through authorized agencies for the permits. The permit process may take three to four weeks as it is lengthy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Mount Kailash is one of the most sacred destinations in the world known to be the sacred abode of Lord Shiva.
