Why Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 2026 is Special?

The Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 2026 is not just a pilgrimage — it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Here’s why:

Year of the Horse – Once in 12 Years

2026 falls under the Year of the Horse in the Tibetan zodiac, a highly auspicious time for spiritual journeys. According to Tibetan and Hindu beliefs, doing the Kora (circumambulation of Mount Kailash) during this year brings multiplied spiritual merit, making it one of the most sacred times to undertake the yatra. This auspicious year, occurring every 12 years, is believed to amplify the spiritual energy of Mount Kailash and its surroundings.

Powerful Full Moon Departures

The best months for the yatra are May to September, with June to August being peak times for Full Moon (Purnima) departures — considered especially powerful for darshan and spiritual cleansing.
