Mount Kailash | Even beginners can easily master it, with a guide included

Even beginners can easily master it, with a guide included. After waiting for more than half a year, it has finally returned! It is an entry-level high-altitude trekking route in Tibet, and also one of the few routes in Tibet that is friendly to novices. So what exactly is the Mount Kailash trek like? Mount Kailash has an elevation of 7554M and is one of the peaks in the Himalayas in Tibet. It is also one of the four sacred mountains traditionally revered by the Tibetan people. Route overview: Scenery index: 5 stars Difficulty index: 2 stars (without camping) Trekking distance: 30 kilometers Average altitude: 4700M Best trekking time: March-May, the spring snow season, with a high possibility of snowfall. The snow scenery and the rhododendrons in May are the main attractions at this time. June-August, when wildflowers bloom sporadically, set against the clear lake water and the distant snow-capped mountains, one might feel as if they've stepped into a world created by Hayao Miyazaki. September-October, the snow mountains and golden forests intertwine beautifully, as if walking through an oil painting. November-February, the exclusive blue ice season, where one can indulge in the beauty of sapphires, especially at Puma Yumco. Beautiful sights: 5 sacred mountains: Mount Kailash + Yala Shampoo + Gurla Mandhata + Kangrinboqe + Dala Ri 5 sacred lakes: Yamdrok Lake + Puma Yumco + Baima Linco + Zhegu Co Three Lakes + Jiejiu Co Recommended route D1: Gather in Lhasa from all over the country D2: Lhasa - Samye Monastery - Yumbulagang - Zhegu Grassland - Comai D3: Comai - Kajiu Monastery - Sêrxü D4: Sêrxü - Co Yu Village - Baima Linco - Co Yu Village D5: Co Yu Village - Gurla Mandhata - Zhegu Co Three Lakes - Co Yu Village D6: Co Yu - Jiejiu Co - View Mount Kailash - Sêrxü - Lhozhag D7: Lhozhag - Puma Yumco - Yamdrok Lake - Lhasa Equipment suggestions Travel equipment: 40-60L large backpack/suitcase, about 25L small backpack, thermal water bottle, sleeping bag (spare), photography equipment, etc.; Suggested clothing: windbreaker, down jacket or fleece, hiking boots or trekking shoes, long-sleeve sweatshirt, long pants, T-shirt, thermal underwear, undergarments, socks, etc.; Sun protection: sunscreen, lip balm, sunglasses, magic scarf, hat; Personal common medicines, toiletries, ID card (minors without an ID card need to bring a household registration book), border pass.
