Safety issues a priority for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra

Safety issues are a priority for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra

If you are taking the Nepal route, then Trip To Temples follows an acclimatization procedure & plan yatra accordingly so pilgrims get adjusted to different altitudes. The good part of the yatra in the Heli route is that airlines do not fly flights & heli in bad weather conditions, which minimizes the risk.

Since the Government route is longer & takes extra days & efforts, there is a strict medical procedure followed at different places & pilgrims can be returned from any point of the yatra.

In 2017, China refused the entry of 47 Indian pilgrims to the area who wanted to travel through the Nathu-la pass in Sikkim. The inclement weather and the bad road conditions were the reasons given for the denial of entry. As the trek is not an easy one, the safety and security of the pilgrims should be the priority for government officials on both sides. Thousands of pilgrims brave the mountainous terrain every year to offer their respects to the heavenly abode of Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati and get blessings in return.

If you are planning to go on the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, it is a good idea to follow all government guidelines for safety and security purposes. Good-quality trekking shoes, a backpack and a walking stick are must-have items to carry. This is truly the journey of a lifetime, and will build memories that one can cherish all life.
