Simikot is an eclectic village, and its location as a gateway to Mount Kailash and Western Tibet gives it a variety of sensations. The integration of local Humla and Tibetan culture offers endless and exciting opportunities for exploration.

After 2 hours, you will cross a small plateau. A 20-meter descent to a large metal suspension bridge over the Sali River.

This trek through the beautiful pine forests. Below you will see the green emerald River of Karnali. Once again, you can meet a host of mules and dzopas (crossbreed of yak and cow). The travelers are primarily villagers from Simikot and Nininba Valley east of Simikot. They go (or return) to Taklakot, across the border with Tibet, to buy commercial goods.

You will arrive in Yalbang after 5-6 hours of travel. Above the village is a magnificent monastery: the Namkha Khyung Dzong Monastery.

From Yalbang, the road goes up the Karnali River again. After about 20 minutes, you will pass the village of Yangar. The most common route is the “Nepali Flat”: fl in sections, some on the ascent, and some on the descent. Some road sections are wonderfully carved in the rock, and you will find yourself walking through a three-dimensional tunnel. You will see the environment change as the rockier and the more giant pine trees form the path of smaller shrubs. He crosses the Karnal River with a large wooden suspension bridge.

Here, the road rises to the top of the Karnal River and the upper side of the deep ravine. Below, you will see the evergreen Emerald River.

Leaving the Takumot, the route goes up slowly but steadily, where a small hill climbs in the middle. Soon after leaving the village, you will see the earth’s shape change: it becomes more rocky and desolate. The few remaining trees are low juniper trees. Part of the route passes through a dirt road that is currently under construction.

It is not yet clear when and when the road will be completed. You will cross the small town of Pani Palwang – just a few blocks from the street – making it a great place to have tea or lunch.

Today you cross the Nara La pass by 14,000 ft (4,330 m). It’s been a long and tedious hike, but the view is your reward! As the trail goes up, the area becomes more and more desolate. The trees are entirely disappearing, and the landscape looks more like Tibet. Sometimes you will come across huge mules or yaks. You will pass a few tea bowls at Tado Dunga, and from here, the trail becomes steep.

It’s two hours to go up the aisle, and in the event of a snowstorm, it will take a while. Typically, this day trip takes 5-6 hours. About half an hour from the passage, you will cross a few large tents (tent hotels, serving food and drinks). You can see Nara La passing in the distance, but it is still a difficult climb to get there because of the altitude. You will see the passing of piles of stones and the ropes of Tibetan prayer, moving prayers away from the strong wind. You have fantastic views of central Tibet and head back to Yari far below.

On the other side of the globe, it seems to be in Tibet. Barren mountains surround it in brown tones, cups, ashes, and dark yellow. From the transfer, it is a long descent to Hilsa, near the border with Tibet.

Hilsa is the nearest port of Tibet- at peak times, you will see thousands of Indian travelers crossing the border towards Mount Kailash in Tibet.

The valley is famous for the snow leopards and the bharal, the lush Himalayas. After traveling for 4-5 hours, you will camp in Manipeme at an altitude of 3,930 meters.

Today’s distance seems short, but the route from Hilsa to Til is a bit steep and takes about 7 hours. It is dry, vertical, and flaky. He walks along the Trans Himalaya Dread Path, which gets its name from the wrong places and the route of the beast. Carefully tread on the trail as you roam the yak and sheep, returning from the border with fully loaded trade packs.

There are three villages in the district of Limit-Til, Halji, and Jang. Til is located at about 13,500 ft (4,100 m) and is surrounded by barley fields on the city’s west side.

You will reach another bridge across the same river. Pass the bridge and go to the left. Then, traveling northeast for about half an hour, you will arrive at a beautiful spot on the plain of Halji village.

From Jang, another hour trip will take you to your destination where you are welcome: the hot springs of Chagzur.

Today is your day off, after a long and tiring 10-day trip. However, you have two options: either a day off and a time to wash clothes and relax in the tropical baths. If the weather is favorable, you will have the opportunity to see Mt. Kailash and Holy Lake Manasarovar in Tibet from Lapcha Syar 16,000 ft (4,900 m). For those pedestrians who want to see the panoramic view of Kailash and Manasarovar, you will need to rent a truck (this can be easily arranged) as road access from Tibet can be poor.

You have two options from here to the Nyalu camp: if you cross the river, there is a shorter route on the new road; the longest trail runs through Tagtsi and is even more beautiful. Just across the Tagtsi Bridge to your right, you will see one of the ruined language villages. The ruined city was once the oldest village in Limi village, known as Tshamdo or Zambuk (also known as the ruined village of Lama Palya). Nowadays, its ruins and Chorten (Buddhist stupa) can be seen.
