The journey to Mt. Kailash is an important spiritual journey for millions of Hindus & Buddhists,
in addition to Jains and also to the Bonpo. It is divinely said that one circuit of the sacred
Mt. Kailash (54 km/32-mile) is enough to wipe out all the sins of a lifetime. However,
eliminating all the sins of yourlifetime is only part of the task; the major purification
requires that you also do 108 revolutions. Bathing in the icy cold sapphire waters of Lake
Mansarover at the mountain's base is also truly believed to remove the sins of innumerable
lifetimesdoing this holy pilgrimage could change the course of your life forever!!!

IMPORTANT PRE-DEPARTURE INFORMATION

Clothing
Casual wears and comfortable walking shoes are the rule of Tibet . Be sure to bring warm clothing as
nights and early mornings can be quite chilly to cold. Indian Pilgrims are advised strictly not to wear
Sari during this yatra. Bring all the film, medicine, cosmetics, personal toilet items etc. that you will
need from home as these are difficult if not impossible to obtain on the way. A small first aid kit is also
a good idea. Also quite useful is a route map, to know where you are going and have been each day.
What To Take
Winter wear: Gore-Tex material, though expensive, is highly recommended. Down jacket, raincoat or
windbreakers, thermal under wears, Jackets, warm trousers & woolen shirts (cotton will also do), warm
sweaters, woolen gloves, sun hat, comfortable shoes, light leather boots in case of snow, woolen
balaclava ('monkey cap') & scarf/dust mask to protect your eyes & nose from dust.
Bring With You
You may bring the snacks for along the way such as chocolates, dry fruits, toffees, glucose, namkeen
etc. Strong water bottle & water purifying tablets. Personal medical kit and Diamox tablet (for high
altitude). Sun glasses (to protect your eyes from UV, which is especially strong in high altitudes).
Sun block or sun screen lotion, wet tissues (Fresh-ones are excellent to wipe off the dust), clothesline/clips, needle & thread, body spray (handy for smelly boots/feet and for a round of spray in the toilet
tent!), toilet paper, torch & spare batteries, daypack (small shoulder bag), Camera & films, Binocular.
Health
This is one of the toughest high altitude road journeys on earth. You Must be physically fit - no two
ways about that. Generally patients with asthma & heart problems have a problem acclimatizing to high
altitudes. In your interests it is essential you should be examined by your doctor to know about your
health condition and your ability to cope up with the rigors of high altitude travel for days in 'no road'
conditions, extreme cold, dust, trekking to an altitude of 19500ft during the Parikrama, etc.
Altitude Sickness
As you are traveling over high terrain, you are likely to experience symptoms and discomfort of altitude
sickness (headache, loss of appetite, nausea, exhaustion, sleeplessness, breathlessness etc.) until your
body adjusts to the elevation. This can take a couple of days or more depending on an individual. For
this reason alone, we have made it mandatory to stay 2 nights at Nyalam (12000ft) before moving on to
the higher altitudes.
Drink plenty of water, be calm, and do not exercise. Do not drink alcohol or smoke prior to and during
the tour. We also recommend you carry a strip of diamox tablets. We provide Gamow bag (a special
equipment to prevent sickness from high altitude) on this tour.

Currency
The unit of Chinese currency is Yuan. USD 1 = 6.48 Yuan &1 Yuan = INR 10.28 approx. (as of
Satyam Tours & Travels Pvt. Ltd. / Satyam Treks & Expedition Pvt. Ltd .

December 2015). Money can be exchanged at Bank of China at Zhangmu or from the locals at
Zhangmu or Kodari. Exchange all your remaining Yuan at the end of the trip at Zhangmu before reentering Nepal .
