Mount Kailash
trekking from Simikot provides an opportunity
to learn about both Nepalese and Tibetan culture.
There is no direct flight from Kathmandu to Simikot.
You must fly 1 and half-hours to Nepalgunj on
the Southern border of Nepal, spend a night and
take an early morning flight to Simikot. If you
want to walk to Simikot, takes about 15 days from
Surkhet. Simikot (elevation 2910 metres) is on
the ridge high above the Humla Karnali encircled
by high snow covered ridges. |
|
Simikot
(opened to trekkers in 1993) is the seat of Nepal’s
most remote district, Humla, several days’
walk from the nearest major village. There is
a continuous stream of "Humli" people
from surrounding villages trading, buying supplies
and dealing with various bureaucracies. |
| After 5/6 days trekking
(Simikot-Tuling-Kermi-Yangar-Torea-Sipsip-Taklakot),
a stone pillar that marks the Nepal/Tibet border
is just across a rickety wooden bridge, perhaps
one of the most informal border crossings in the
world |
Hereafter
you can make your trip to Mt. Kailash. Buddhists,
Hindus, Jains and Bonpos have considered mount
Kailash sacred for thousands of years. For Hindus
and Buddhists it is the center of the Universe.
It is atop this mountain that Lord Siva dwells
in meditation. A pilgrimage to the mountain and
around it is a sacred goal for the faithful. |
