Tips for Your Kailash Kora

The Kailash region is located in the Ngari Prefecture, at an average altitude of 3900 meters. If you are going to do the Kailash kora, you need to conquer the highest point, Drolma La Pass (5630m). This means you will do high strength activities on high-elevation areas, thus good physical condition is required. Therefore, for tourists who have already suffered from acute altitude sickness in Lhasa, you’d better suspend or cancel your plan of Kailash trekking.

It is strongly suggested to ascend slowly during the kora. And proper rest is needed when you feel you have reached the limit. If you suffer from intense altitude sickness, it is also recommended to stop trekking and return to the lower regions. Of course, altitude sickness will never be the dreadful monster. For most people, Mount Kailash trekking can be smoothly accomplished, as long as the rules are well kept.
