For centuries, this journey has attracted sages, seekers, and devotees from all over the world. Today, modern-day pilgrims can fulfill this once-in-a-lifetime dream through the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra by Helicopter, a comfortable and time-saving alternative to the traditional trekking route.
Why Choose the Helicopter Route?
In the past, the Yatra involved long, strenuous treks through high altitudes, which posed challenges for elderly devotees or those with limited time. The helicopter route solves this beautifully. Starting from Kathmandu or Lucknow, pilgrims fly to Nepalgunj, then to Simikot, and finally to Hilsa via helicopter. After crossing into Tibet, they travel by road to reach Lake Mansarovar and Mount Kailash. The entire journey can be completed in 9 to 12 days, with plenty of time for spiritual connection and rest.
Lake Mansarovar: A Sacred Mirror
Lake Mansarovar, situated at an altitude of over 15,000 feet, is one of the highest freshwater lakes in the world. The lake’s calm surface reflects the sky and mountains, creating a surreal atmosphere that invites meditation and inner peace. Many pilgrims perform rituals, offer prayers, or simply sit in silence, absorbing the divine vibrations of the area.
Mount Kailash: The Center of the Universe
Mount Kailash is not just a mountain — it is a symbol of cosmic power and spiritual energy. For Hindus, it is the sacred home of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Jains believe it is the site where their first Tirthankara attained liberation. Walking the Parikrama (Kora) — the 52-km trek around Kailash — is considered an act of great merit. Even those who choose not to trek feel spiritually transformed just by witnessing its majestic presence.
