Trip to the Holy-Kailash and Manasarovar
 In May 1993 the governments of Nepal and China reached an accord that
allowed the first treks across the border between the two countries. While
it had been a route for Nepalese pilgrims for years, foreign trekkers were
never allowed to trek from Nepal into Tibet. The journey through Humla,
Nepal's highest, northernmost and most remote district is culturally and
scenically rewarding. The upper Humla Karnali Valley is also populated by
Bhotias who trade extensively with Tibet in traditional ways that have
totally vanished elsewhere. It is only near Simikot, the district
headquarters, that you will encounter people of other ethnic groups, mostly
Thakuris and Chhetris.
A trip to Mt Kailash has always been regarded as a pilgrimage. It satisfies
the romantic in us that the pilgrimage to Kailash is a difficult one.
Whether you drive for seven days or walk for six days, it is still not
possible to make a quick, easy visit to Kailash and Manasarovar. You cannot
yet travel all the way to Kailash by helicopter or airplane. This is
certainly as it should be. After kailash the view of Mt. Everest form Tibet site on stay at highest places monastery onearth Rongbuck is another attraction for you.
