Mt. Kailash-Simikot


After reaching an accord 1993 of Nepal and China Government, it has been allowed to trek 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. 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. We have combined such a nice adventure tour with the opening up of the border crossing between Nepal and Tibet via Taklakot (Purang), Mt. Kailash is now accessible for foreign trekkers with 6 days of trekking from the beautiful region of Simikot (3900 M). For this trek we follow the Humla Karnali route and trek through rice and wheat fields, through surging waters of the Humla Karnali, meet well-educated friendly monks who speak excellent English and yes, see some of the finest views nature has to offer.

  Clients Reference


I did a 31 day trip from Nepal to Tibet with Holiday Mountain Treks. We started off with a 6 day trek from Simikot to the Tibetan border, followed by the Kailash Kora, and drove to Guge, and from there, travel back to Lhasa, travelling through almost 3 quarters of the length of Tibet. It was a tough but amazing trip. I'd like to thank Mr. Malla for organising the trek for me. He went through great troubles attaching me (a single person travelling) to a group that was travelling on around the same schedule and visiting the places I wanted -- esp. the Guge Kingdom. I was well taken care of during the trip despite some hiccups which I feel come with the territory of travelling in tibet! Thank you for organising this and I look forward to doing more treks in Nepal with you, Abir!
