Kailash Mansarovar Yatra

There are no washrooms at Lake Mansarovar, so during your one-night stay at Mansarovar, Trip To Temples provides Portable Toilet tents for its pilgrims. The Mt. Kailash Parikrama is for 2 and a half days. The first day’s parikrama of Mt. Kailash starts from Yamdwar to Dirapuk. The night stay will be at Dirapuk. In 2019- the last time when Kailash Yatra happened, the washroom was being constructed, hopefully, it is expected to get completed by the time Kailash Yatra starts. The second day’s parikrama of Mt. Kailash is from Dirapuk to Zuthulphuk. The night stay will be at Zuthulphuk where there are common washrooms. After completing the last day’s parikrama you will return to Darchen.

There are no washrooms at Lake Mansarovar, so Trip To Temples provides portable toilet tents for its pilgrims. Until 2019 there was no washroom at Dirapuk, in 2019 the washroom was being constructed but whether it is ready or not is unknown because the Kailash Yatra did not happen in 2020, 2021 and 2022 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

There are common washrooms for men and women in the dormitories and guest houses on the Kailash Yatra. Dormitories and guest house stay in Kailash Mansarovar Yatra are provided in Simikot (1 night) on the Helicopter Kailash Yatra route and in Syabrubesi (1 night) on Overland Kailash Yatra route. Since there are no toilets near Lake Mansarovar, Trip To Temples provides common portable toilets and toilet tents for men and women travelling with us on the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra. A common washroom will also be available at Zuthulpuk, during our second-night stay in Mount Kailash Parikrama.

Earlier the toilet condition at the Chinese immigration centre was not good. Still, with the development in tourism, new construction is being done by the Chinese government to provide better facilities to the pilgrims. Now better infrastructure is available at the Chinese immigration centre on the Nepal-Tibet border.

Government-supplied electricity is available on the Nepal side. On the Tibet side, electricity is available up to Purang town (on the Heli route) and Saga (on the Overland route). There are fixed timings of electricity and water supply in Purang town. In Mansarovar and Mount Kailash parikrama, solar light systems and emergency lights are available.

Mobile charging points are available only in Hotel rooms and not in dormitories and tourist rest houses. To use the charging points, you need to have a universal adapter.  However, it is advised to carry a good quality power bank to charge your devices and an extra battery for the camera.
