  • Age Limit for Kailash Mansarovar Yatra
    • The age limit to obtain a Kailash Yatra permit for Indian passport holders is 69 years. It is not applicable for individuals above 70 years. However, we cannot guarantee that a permit will be issued.
  • Health Restrictions
    • This is one of the toughest high-altitude road journeys on earth. You must be physically fit. Generally, patients with asthma and heart problems may have difficulty acclimatizing to high altitudes. It is essential to be examined by your doctor to assess your health condition and your ability to cope with the rigors of high-altitude travel, extreme cold, dust, and trekking to an altitude of 5,630 meters at Dolmala Pass during the Kailash round.
  • Risk of Altitude Sickness
    • As you are traveling over high terrain, you may experience symptoms and discomfort of altitude sickness (headache, loss of appetite, nausea, exhaustion, sleeplessness, breathlessness, etc.) until your body adjusts to the elevation. This acclimatization can take a couple of days or more, depending on the individual. For this reason, we have made it mandatory to stay 2 nights at Nyalam (12,000 ft). Yatris (tourists) can also make this Kailash journey by taking a flight from Kathmandu to Simikot by helicopter, or to Lhasa and Kerung city, which will shorten the duration of the trip. Drink plenty of water, remain calm, and avoid exercise. Do not consume alcohol or smoke prior to and during the tour. We also recommend carrying a strip of Diamox tablets; please consult your physician regarding the dosage. We provide lifesaving oxygen cylinders with regulators and masks in case of altitude sickness, which are world-class equipment for high-altitude areas up to Mt. Everest.
  • Currency Exchange Information
    • Important: For Indian Yatris, 500 INR bills are not allowed while traveling in Nepal. We suggest that all Yatris carry some US dollars (USD) or 100 INR bills, or other international currencies such as AUD, CAD, EURO, POUND, CHF, SGD, HKD, CHN, or MALAYAN. The unit of Chinese currency is Yuan. The exchange rate is approximately USD 1 = 6.50 Yuan and 1 Yuan = 13 INR. Money can be exchanged at the Bank of China in Lhasa, at the Kerung border, or in Purang, or from local people and guides in Lhasa.
