Hidden charges in Kailash Mansarovar Yatra: Be Alert of All Potential Hidden Cost When Going to Kailash Mansarovar




Kailash Mansarovar Yatra: Are there any hidden charges?

Going on the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra is something most Hindu devotees want to go on considering the immense religious significance attributed to it. Mount Kailash, which goes over 22,000 ft, is believed to be the abode of Lord Shiva. Doing a ‘parikrama’ of Mount Kailash is a trek that one has to do on foot. It is about 32 KMs long and involves trekking in rough mountainous terrains which means that pilgrims are required to have a certain level of fitness. If you are wondering about how to go on the Yatra, how much cost for Kailash Mansarovar, and what the hidden charges are, then a discussion is the best way to go about it.

If you choose to go on the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra with them, you can be assured that there will be no ‘hidden charges’.
