Overview
Many trekkers used to go to Kailash Trekking via Simikot, once the border between Nepal and China (Humla) was opened in 1993. Humla is the most far-flung district located to the northwest side of the country Nepal. The route to Kailash trekking via Simikot is the shortest yet rewards you with amazing views and immense affluence in culture as well as history.
Mt. Kailash, located at the height of 6714 m is also named as Tise, Kang Rinpoche, and Kailasa. It is considered sacred by the Buddhist, the Hindus, Jains, as well as the Bonpos. For the Hindus, the peak is the dwelling spot of Lord Shiva; for the Bonpos, Kailash was the holy nine-story Swastika peak burning from heaven; and for the Buddhists, the peak is a worldly ridge of the immense Mandala of Boddhisatvas and Dhyani-Buddhas, which things can see in this Kailash trekking tour. The Saga Dawa Festival going to celebrate on 05 June 2020 in Tibet (Mt. Kailash).
