It takes 3 days to complete the one round around Shiva’s Abode. Divided into three days, the trek is designed in a way so that our bodies get programmed for trekking at such high altitudes and difficult breathing conditions. Where does the Yatra start? The base camp of the pilgrimage is in Darchen at an altitude of 15,000 feet above sea level. You will find local guesthouses for accommodation to relax the mind and soul after climbing and descending around the mountain. First Day of the Trek The first day starts from Darchen towards Dirapuk Monastery is a very easy day since the trek route is moderate with just ups and downs. All you need to do is stick together with your assigned group. Second Day of the Trek The second day starts from Dirapuk to takes you to Zuthulpuk Monastery. As the most daunting and challenging day of the trek, the trek will take you through the Drolma La Pass, the highest point of the trek (5630m). The trek is extremely dangerous because of its drastic ascents and descents. One must be very careful with it as it has a rough and rugged terrain. Also, do not stay at the Drolma La pass since the thin air and strong cold winds could be detrimental to your health. The Last Leg of the Kora The third day of the Kora is the easiest. You need to cover the least distance to complete the holy Parikrama of Mount Kailash. It is not a picturesque stretch of the Kora but the ground underneath permits you to ponder the previous days.
