Kailash Mansarovar Yatra By Bus is one of the most traditional ways to reach Mount Kailash and the holy Mansarovar Lake.This route is preferred by devotees who want an immersive journey through the Himalayas.
The bus route covers different terrains, from plains to steep mountain roads. Depending on the schedule, the journey usually takes 13 to 14 days. Pilgrims travel through forests, high passes and river valleys before reaching Tibet. Important points on the way include altitudes of 3,000 to 5,000 metres, with Lake Mansarovar itself located at around 4,590 metres and Mount Kailash rising to 6,638 metres. These heights require proper rest and acclimatization, which are planned into the bus itinerary.
Kailash Mansarovar Yatra By Bus 2026 is often connected to two main routes traditionally used by pilgrims. The Lipulekh Pass route in Uttarakhand is known for its long and challenging trek of nearly 200 km, passing through Gunji, Kalapani, and Nabhidhang before entering Tibet.
