This quite demanding trekking tour leads to the heart of Eastern Kham's Holy Mountain Kawakarpo. At the beginning, we trek along the Minyong Glacier with its two small monasteries related to the Kagyu School of Tibetan Buddhism.

The glacier-trek is followed by the ascent to Yubeng Village and the goal of all pilgrims - the Holy Waterfall at the end of a picturesque valley, one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in Tibet. The route follows the "inner kora", the path the pilgrims take on their way to the waterfall. Along this trail, accompanied by the countless donations left by the pilgrims, many small treasures and holy sites are to be explored. We will stay overnight in basic guest rooms of Tibetan families' farmhouses or in simple guest houses.

Due to the accessibility and the harmonious routing, which allows flexibility such as horseback-riding as an alternative to a demanding ascent on foot, this tour is an excellent chance for a try-out of Himalayan trekking. The tour offers both culturally and naturally unique experiences - the sometimes quite well-maintained paths lead through wild gorges and over soft alpine pastures, to huge glaciers and to the banks of the roaring Mekong River, whereas the opportunity to stay with local families offers an unseen chance for a deep insight into the daily life of the Tibetan community.
