Ride a Royal Enfield to Adi Kailash (Chhota Kailash), witness the divine Om Parvat, and ascend to Lipulekh Pass. A 9-day journey that connects adventure and spirituality deep inside the Kumaon Himalayas.
Adi Kailash — also lovingly called Chhota Kailash — is a sacred mountain in the Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand. It sits deep in the Kumaon Himalayas, very close to the India-China-Nepal trisection border. For centuries, it has been worshipped as an earthly abode of Lord Shiva, similar in spiritual importance to Kailash Mansarovar in Tibet.
At the base of Adi Kailash sits a beautiful temple called Shivalaya and a sacred lake called Parvati Sarovar. Devotees believe a dip in Parvati Sarovar gives the same spiritual merit as visiting the main Kailash Mansarovar. The mountain's peak glows golden in the early morning light — a view that takes your breath away.
On the same journey, you also witness Om Parvat — where the snow on the mountain naturally forms the sacred OM (ॐ) symbol. Scientists and pilgrims alike have confirmed this remarkable natural formation. It is one of the most awe-inspiring sights in all of India.

Start from Rishikesh, ride through Jageshwar, Munsiyari, Dharchula, and reach Adi Kailash & Om Parvat. Total riding distance approximately 1,400 km.
Tour at a Glance
Route Map
Reach Rishikesh and check into your hotel. In the evening, visit the famous Ganga Aarti at Parmarth Niketan Ghat — a beautiful welcome to your Himalayan yatra. After dinner, our tour leader gives a full briefing about the ride ahead — route, rules, bike tips, and safety guidelines.
Start your ride after breakfast. Today you pass through one of the most important Shiva temple complexes in India — Jageshwar Dham near Almora, where over 100 ancient temples stand in a thick deodar forest. Arrive at Gwaldam for the night — a quiet hilltop town with beautiful views of Trisul and Nanda Devi peaks.
Today is the day you truly enter the Kumaon Himalayas. Ride through thick deodar forests to reach Munsiyari — the base camp for Panchachuli Peaks. En route, stop at the stunning Birthi Waterfall. From Munsiyari, on a clear morning, the five peaks of Panchachuli look absolutely majestic. This is one of the most scenic riding days of the tour.
This is the day the adventure truly begins. Ride down to Dharchula — a lively border town on the Kali River, just across from Nepal. Then start the climb into the Vyas Valley on increasingly narrow, off-road mountain paths toward Nabi/Gunji Village. The altitude rises sharply today. You start feeling the mountains close around you.
This is the moment you have been waiting for. Wake up early, ride through Kuti Village passing 2 Inner Line permit checkpoints. The road leads you to the base of Adi Kailash (Chhota Kailash) — the sacred mountain of Lord Shiva. From here, a 3 km trek takes you to Parvati Sarovar, the holy lake at the foot of the divine peak. The views here are beyond description. Return to Nabi for the night.
The second star day of the tour. Early morning ride from Nabi Village toward Om Parvat — at 6,191 meters, its snow-covered slopes form the sacred OM (ॐ) symbol. The sight fills every visitor with a deep sense of awe. Then you attempt the Lipulekh Pass at 5,334 meters — the ancient trade route to Tibet — subject to Indian Army permission (which Wander Sky handles). The views from this height are simply unforgettable. Return down to Dharchula for the night.
The high altitude adventure is done — now ride on smooth tarmac roads back toward civilization. Pass through Pithoragarh, the beautiful district headquarters with its own magnificent fort. Stop at Jageshwar Dham again (from the other side this time) and arrive at the artistic hilltop village of Kasar Devi near Almora — famous for its magnetic vortex energy and stunning Himalayan panorama.
Wake up early for a stunning sunrise view of Nanda Devi peak from Kasar Devi — the highest peak in India at 7,816 meters. Then start the long ride back to Rishikesh through Haldwani on the plains highway. Short tea breaks on the way. Arrive Rishikesh by evening, check into hotel, and celebrate the completion of your Himalayan yatra over dinner with your fellow riders.
Breakfast at the hotel. Check out. Your 9-day Adi Kailash yatra is complete. This is the moment to sit quietly, look back at the mountains you have just ridden through, and feel the transformation inside you. You rode to the sacred abode of Lord Shiva, witnessed the divine OM in snow, and climbed to the ancient Tibet gateway. No journey quite like this one exists anywhere in India.

"I have done many bike tours across India but the Adi Kailash tour with Wander Sky was on a completely different level. Standing in front of Adi Kailash and seeing Om Parvat made me feel something I cannot put into words. The team handled everything perfectly — permits, accommodation, food. Outstanding."

"We went as a group of 4 friends. The inclusion of fuel in the package was a huge plus — no worrying about petrol in remote areas. The off-road sections on Day 4 were thrilling. Om Parvat was the most spiritually moving moment of my life. Worth every rupee of ₹45,000."

"The tour marshal Sanjeev bhai was incredible. He knows every village, every shortcut, and every story about the mountains. The RE Himalayan 450 was perfect for those roads. Parvati Sarovar trek is tough but so rewarding. I am already planning my second Adi Kailash visit next year."

Every question you have before booking the Adi Kailash yatra — answered.
Adi Kailash, jise Chhota Kailash bhi kehte hain, Uttarakhand ke Pithoragarh district mein Kumaon Himalayas mein sthit ek pavitra parvat hai. Yeh Lord Shiva ka earthly abode mana jaata hai. Altitude lagbhag 4,500 meters hai. Iske base par Shivalaya temple aur Parvati Sarovar (holy lake) hain. Kailash Mansarovar jaisi hi puja-archana yahan hoti hai.
Wander Sky ka Adi Kailash tour package 2026 mein ₹45,000 per rider hai triple sharing basis par. Isme Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 bike, hotel accommodation, breakfast + dinner, bike fuel, inner line permits, luggage vehicle, mechanical support aur dedicated tour marshal sab included hai. Double sharing upgrade ₹49,000 mein available hai.
Adi Kailash yatra September se October mein hoti hai — yeh sabse best time hai. Mausam perfect hota hai, raste khule hote hain, aur Om Parvat par snow formations clearly visible hoti hain. May-June mein bhi possible hai. November se March mein barfbaari ki wajah se raste band rehte hain. 2026 mein 13 upcoming batches hain September-October mein.
Adi Kailash trek ki distance Nabi/Gunji Village se approximately 14 km (return trip) hai. Adi Kailash base se Parvati Sarovar tak additional 3 km ki hike hai. Total pura bike tour approximately 1,400 km ka hai 9 din mein. Trek moderate hai — basic fitness level chahiye. Steep sections hain lekin manageable hain.
Haan, Adi Kailash area ke liye Inner Line Permit zaroori hai — kyunki yeh Indo-Nepal-China border ke paas hai. Wander Sky aapke sabhi permits arrange karta hai package price mein hi — koi extra charge nahi. Dharchula aur Kuti Village mein 2 permit checkpoints hain. Lipulekh Pass ke liye Indian Army permission bhi arrange kiya jaata hai.
Om Parvat 6,191 meters unchha parvat hai Pithoragarh mein Nepal border ke paas. Iske snow-covered slopes par naturally OM (ॐ) symbol banta hai — yeh ek divine natural phenomenon hai. Yeh darshan Lipulekh Pass road se hoti hai. Best visibility September-October mein hoti hai jab snow fresh hoti hai aur sky clear hoti hai.
Adi Kailash tour experienced riders ke liye best hai — kyunki isme high altitude roads (3,400m+), off-road sections near Dharchula-Vyas Valley, aur challenging Himalayan terrains hain. Minimum 2-3 years of riding experience chahiye. Agar aap beginner hain to pehle Harshil Valley 4-day tour ya Kumaon Hills 6-day tour karein, phir Adi Kailash plan karein.
Kailash Mansarovar Tibet mein hai jo China ke control mein hai — wahan jaana mushkil aur mahanga hai (visa, permits). Adi Kailash, ya Chhota Kailash, India ke Uttarakhand mein hai aur accessible hai. Dono ko Lord Shiva ka abode mana jaata hai. Adi Kailash mein bhi Shivalaya temple aur Parvati Sarovar hain. Kai devotees Adi Kailash visit ko Kailash yatra jitna hi poojniya maante hain.
