Tibet Trekking Tour FAQs & Travel Tips

  • When is the best time for a Tibet trekking tour?

    The best time to trek in Tibet is from April to October, with April to June and September to early October offering the finest weather and less rainfall. If you’re planning to trek to Everest Base Camp in Tibet, these months provide the best options for clear views of Mount Everest as well as the Himalayas.

    Mount Kailash trek, popular among both tourists and pilgrims, is also best done in spring from late April to early June and in the autumn from September to mid-October. During these periods, the weather is ideal for trekking in the Mount Kailash region.

    Of course, you can trek in Tibet in summer, when the valleys are lush and green. Just pay attention to the monsoon season, as rain and cloud cover may obscure mountain views.

    Although winter is not a good time to trek Mount Kailash or Everest Base Camp due to the cold weather, it is the perfect time for other treks around Lhasa, including the Ganden to Samye trek. If you're visiting Tibet in winter and want a trekking experience, you can enjoy peaceful short treks near Lhasa with fewer crowds.

  • Do I need a special permit to trek in Tibet?

    For a Tibet trekking tour, you first need both a Chinese Visa and a Tibet Travel Permit< to enter the Tibet Autonomous Region.

    If you’re taking an Everest Base Camp trek or a Mount Kailash Kora trek, you also need to obtain extra local travel permits, such as the Alien’s Travel Permit and Military Permit.

    If you just want a leisurely short trek or hike around Lhasa city, no more permits are needed.

    Once you book a Tibet trekking tour with us, we guarantee all necessary travel documents to ensure a hassle-free trekking experience in Tibet.

  • How fit do I need to be for trekking in Tibet?

    Trekking in Tibet demands a good level of physical fitness due to its high altitude and rugged terrain. You should be at least physically fit enough to trek at low altitude areas and do some training in advance to handle the thinner air and challenging conditions of most treks in Tibet.

  • Is it possible to trek to Everest Base Camp in Tibet?

    Yes, it is! The classic Everest Base Camp trek in Tibet starts from Tingri. It covers about 70 kilometers and takes 4 days to reach the Everest Base Camp on the northern side of Mount Everest in Tibet.

    The most popular route is to take an overland journey from Lhasa to Tingri. En route, you can explore the holy city of Lhasa, visit the turquoise Yamdrok Lake, and discover the second-largest city of Shigatse, while getting used to the altitude rise and preventing high altitude sickness.

    In total, the Tingri to Everest Base Camp trek from Lhasa takes 10 days, including the 4-day trek and your journey from and back to Lhasa.

    You can also start the Tingri to Everest Base Camp trek from Kathmandu via the Gyirong border. Just feel free to contact us to customize your Everest Base Camp trek in Tibet.
  • What is it like on the 3-day Mount Kailash Kora trek?

    The trek around Mount Kailash, also known as the Kailash Kora, is actually rated as one of the hardest treks in Tibet, despite only being three days long. The Mount Kailash trek takes you over 52 kilometers of rough terrain, around a mountain that lies in an area that is at a very high altitude already.

    At its highest point, the trek reaches 5,630 meters at Drolma La Pass, and all of your nightly camping sites are at very high altitudes of above 4,000 meters. This is not a trek for the faint-hearted or the absolute beginner.

  • How to avoid altitude sickness while trekking in Tibet?

    Acclimatization is the key to high-altitude trekking. No matter how fit you think you are, everyone is the same when it comes to altitude sickness, and your extreme fitness will not keep you from getting it.

    Acclimatization in Lhasa before you start trekking is essential, especially if you have come straight to Tibet by flight or train. Spend a few days getting used to the higher altitude, and do not trek until you are completely acclimatized.

    During the trek, monitor your vitals often and keep an eye on the basic functions, watching out for the symptoms of altitude sickness, such as headaches, dehydration, nausea, drowsiness, etc.

    Remaining well-hydrated can help prevent altitude sickness a little, and if you feel any symptoms, stop and rest to help get over it.

    If symptoms persist, inform your guide immediately and descend to a lower altitude as soon as possible.

  • What are the most popular trekking routes in Tibet?

    The most popular Tibet trekking routes are the Everest Base Camp trek and the Mount Kailash trek. Despite the world-famous Tingri to Everest Base Camp trek and the 3-day Mount Kailash trek, there is also an off-the-beaten-path Gama Valley trek on the eastern slope of Mt.Everest, which offers a scenic trekking through the most beautiful valley in Tibet.

    Moreover, there are several small and short treks around Lhasa, which can be done at almost any time of year. The 5-day Lhasa Outskirts trek gives you the chance to explore some of the less-traveled monasteries in Pabongka near downtown Lhasa. The leisurely day trek around Ganden Monastery is quite popular among families with kids to enjoy the stunning views of the valley with cultural and religious experiences.

  • What kind of accommodation is available during a trek in Tibet?

    Accommodation in Tibet when trekking largely depends on where you are trekking.

    During the Mount Kailash trek, you can stay in the guesthouses near monasteries, which offer dormitories, public toilets, and simple food supplies.

    For Mount Everest treks in Tibet, you need to camp in tents, as there is no accommodation nearby. Once you arrive at the Everest Base Camp, you can stay in the Rongbuk Hotel or tent hotels.

    The guesthouses in trekking areas are often very basic with limited facilities. You’ll need to be prepared to rough it during the trek in Tibet.

  • What to eat during a trekking in Tibet?

    Food supplies are also limited during treks in Tibet. Some of the guesthouses provide simple dishes like fried rice and noodles. If you are camping, you can hire a cook or your guide can make basic dishes for you.

    Snacks for high-energy boosts are ideal, as they can give you a quick boost of energy when you need it most. Pack things like chocolate, dried fruit and nuts, trail mix, cookies and biscuits, and any other high energy snacks that you know of.

  • What should I pack for trekking in Tibet?

    Packing depends on your time of year and the trek you are attempting. However, the basics should always be included, such as layers of clothing to regulate your body temperature, good, strong hiking boots, warm woolen socks, shower-proof hiking pants, gloves, a hat, sunglasses, and sun cream.

    You can add hiking poles if you think you may need them on rough ground and up hills, and it is essential to have a day pack, which can be carried instead of your main pack for water and things, while your main pack travels in the support vehicle.
