About Adi Kailash
Hidden deep in the Kumaon Himalayas of Uttarakhand, Adi Kailash (6,191 m), also known as Chotai Kailash, is a mystical peak revered as the earthly abode of Lord Shiva — the Indian counterpart of Tibet’s Mount Kailash.
Located near the Indo-China border in the Dharchula region, this trek offers an unparalleled blend of spiritual grace, Himalayan beauty, and mythological charm. Every step on this journey feels like walking in the footsteps of ancient sages.
