The Kailash Tour by Helicopter via Kyirong is for those people who love Nepal and want to explore Nepal's beauty, like the Himalayas with green hills, in a short time. This short trek starts from Nepal and passes through the charming town of Kyirong.

 

With its religious significance of the Kailash Mansarovar, it is also one of the toughest pilgrimage trails due to its high altitude, remote location, challenging kora trek, limited accessibility, and many more, according to the pilgrims who have already visited Mt. Kailash and Mansarovar by overland. So, one must be careful and book this tour only on the recommendation of a doctor.

 

Due to its inhospitality and high altitude, we are providing the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by helicopter from Kathmandu, Lucknow, Kyirong itself, and many more. In this helicopter tour we are the ones providing the tour at a low cost. 

 

Kailash Tour by Helicopter via Kyriong is not only to reduce the circumstances; this package is provided to all the people who love nature and want to explore the beauty of Nepal with its greenery, landscapes, Himalayas, and villages within a short period of time.

 

According to the Hindus belief, Mount Kailash is the home of the Lord Shiva and goddess Parvati. And Mansarovar is the holy lake where you dip once only, and then all your sins done till date are washed. In Buddhism, Mount Kailash is called the father and Mansarovar, the mother. The first liberation was attained by Tirthankara, Rishabhadeva, who brought the religion of Jainism. And also Bon has their belief that Mt. Kailash is the home of Shenrab Miwo, who was the founder of Bon.

 

In this trek, our journey starts from Kathmandu, from where we will take a flight to Timure by helicopter. After reaching there, we will drive to Kyirong. Similarly, we drive to Saga/Zonpa, Darchen, and Yamdwar. Then, we trek to Diraphuk, Zuthulphuk, and Dolmo La Pass.
