Adi Kailash stands seconds in the list of Panch Kailash. Believed as the second abode of Lord Shiva and his family. The Adi Kailash mountain is a replica of Mount Kailash and the place where Lord Shiva meditated for a very long time. According to Mythology when Lord Shiva came from Mount Kailash with his Barat to Marry Mata Parvati to Rudraprayag then Adi Kailash was the first halt of Shiva's Barat.

Spiritual Significance of Adi Kailash:

 It is believed that Rakshash Raj Ravan was Blessed by Ten heads, power and strength here in Adi Kailash after his intense Tapasya to impress Lord Shiva. It is believed that Pandavas and even Adi Shankaracharya visited Kailash Mansarovar via the same route and did Tapasya here. It is a blessing in itself to be able to walk on the same spiritual path on which many Rishis and Munis went. It is believed that Darshan of Adi Kailash can bring a new approach to your Life and purify your karmic cycle.

OM Parvat
OM Parvat is One of the rare sights ever to have been found. One can find a natural image of OM being imprinted on OM mountain being beautifully highlighted by snow.

Before the construction of new road people use to trek a total of 200 km distance from dharchula to dharchula and yatra was completely done by walking. Earlier few mountaineering groups were given permission/permit to scale Holy Adi kailash but now after the building of new roads and awareness among locals, the administration as well as local people do not support climbing over the holy peak of Adi Kailash. You can trek up to Gauri Kund and touch the feet of the Adi Kailash and receive the blessings of Lord Shiva but you cannot climb over it.

Adi Kailash is the second home of Lord shiva and his family. When Shiva Barat started from Mount Kailash towards Rudraprayag for the Shiva’s marriage, the very first halt taken by them was in Adi Kailash. It is believed that Lord Shiva taught the art and the principles of Yoga to Rishis and sages here and was given the title of Adi Yogi. It is because of this reason, this mountain is knwon as Adi Kailash. Even Ravan did Tapsya and performed Penance here to please Shiva and was blessed with 10 heads, numerous power and strength. Just Darshan of Adi Kailash can cleanse your Karmic Cycle.

OM Parvat is one of the rarest wonders of the world. OM is the sound of the Universe .It is revered and considered Holy word in Hinduism,Buddhism,Jainism. The Symbol of OM  (ॐ) can be naturally witnessed and seen taking a shape in the mountain. It is built without any human intervention. One can witness the full honour of OM on clear weather. A sense of connectivity is experienced by people when they are in the region (Nabhidhang) looking at OM. Om parvat images and om parvat photos do look surreal when you look them on the internet and indeed it is something which looks out of the world. But OM parvat in Uttarakhand is 100% real and authentic. 

Adi Kailash is considered to be a replica of Mount Kailash, hence Adi Kailash is popularly known by the name of Chota Kailash. Some people also call it baba Kailash.
