KMY 2026: Good News for the Kailash Yatris

Trip To Temples Secures Permits for Over 200 Yatris Across First Three Departure Dates in May 2026.

The permits cover the first three departure dates: May 18, May 20, and May 22. The event marks a significant milestone for Trip To Temples, befitting the expansion of devotee communities within our trust.

This development comes at a time when the Kailash Mansarovar pilgrimage season is peaking in India. Receiving permits for over 200 yatris across the above-mentioned dates, i.e., 18th, 20th, and 22nd of May, reflects the trust that Kailash Yatris from India have placed in us. And we have started our further formalities, like visa application and much more. 

“Our responsibility begins long before the journey starts itself. Securing timely permits to cater to a hassle-free Kailash Yatra in 2026 is one of the most critical milestones that we’ve achieved.”- the Spokesperson of Trip To Temples. 

We are ready to serve yatris at Nepal, Tibet, Mansarovar, and other locations that comes in between. This includes- portable toilets, mansarovar jal, portable changing tents, Indian support staff, complimentary stay at Lucknow, NO additional charges in case of a delay caused by the weather or administrative challenge, and much more. 

What are we actually announcing?

Our Kailash Yatris for May are scheduled to depart in three separate groups. The first group will be expected to set out on May 18th 2026, followed by the second group on May 20th 2026, and the third on May 22nd 2026. Staggering these departures allows us to ensure completely dedicated attention, logistical support, and safety management for each of the yatri in each of the mentioned groups.

What does it signify for you?

Obtaining a Tibet Travel Permit for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra is not just an administrative step. But it’s a mandatory, first confirmation suggesting you are undertaking a pre-planned and approved Kailash pilgrimage. It removes uncertainty and allows you to begin the final preparations before the date of departure.

As the leading Kailash pilgrimage planner of India, trusted by over a lakh of pilgrims for their spiritual voyages, Trip To Temples has built its reputation on handling the Kailash permit process on behalf of the pilgrims. We manage documentation, coordinate with International (Tibet/China/Nepal) authorities, and keep our yatris informed of every step. 

To make this even easier for our yatris, the Trip To Temples App (available on the Play Store and the App Store) was launched the previous year. It caters for multiple effective tools such as Mountain Eye, Yatra Progress, My Tirth Tracker, and so much more.

With Kailash Yatra Permits now in hand, we will move into the next stage of preparations. It includes finalising travel arrangements, stay bookings, and safety briefings for all yatris on board.

We’re here urging the onboarded and registered yatris to stay connected through our official communication channels for upcoming notifications for the respective departure dates. And if you’ve not yet registered for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra this year, we’re accepting new registrations for Shravan month (click here to get the registration form). You can also book your yatra for the other auspicious dates like Krishna Janmashtami and more. Permit updates for new dates will be announced in the upcoming weeks. Stay tuned.
