Pithoragarh Inner Valley
The Adi Kailash (Chhota Kailash) and Om Parvat Yatra is a highly mystical high-altitude pilgrimage bordering Tibet in the Vyas Valley of Uttarakhand. It is renowned for the natural snow formation of the sacred symbol "Om" on Om Parvat, and the resemblance of Adi Kailash to Mount Kailash. This route has recently been connected by motorable roads, making it accessible via 4x4 local Bolero vehicles. We manage the necessary Inner Line Permits, medical fitness clearances, accommodation bookings in home stays, and local guide support.
