Yam Dwar is the best vantage point that provides a splendid closest view of south & west faces of mount Kailash. We will take the entire group up to Tarboche; later on, those who will not take part in parikrama will return to Darchen by the same vehicle and wait there for those who are taking parikrama course.

Others, who want to continue their journey ahead will start parikrama from this point. Yam Dwar (Tarboche) is the point where you will get a horse to ride if you have booked for parikrama, but it should be pre-booked in Manasarovar one day ahead with your Tibetan guide.

Members, who are not taking part in trekking, have to stay back in Darchen and wait for those who have gone for full parikrama. When members return from parikrama, we will start our return journey together. ‘ENTRY TOGETHER AND EXIT TOGETHER’ is the mandatory rule of Chinese. If you want to return early, you have to pay extra from your pocket against the separate transport and visa splitting charge.

Today is the toughest & longest journey of this trip. We have to trek almost 22 km through rugged highland to reach Zutulphuk. Literally, we have to pack up our gear and set off from the hotel at 5 a.m. Chinese time. Initially, it is an uphill trek from Diraphuk but after walking for an hour or so, the trail turns into a mild ascend. Half of the trail passes through an elevation of 4900 m./16,000 ft. or above, so there is no wonder if we suffer from breathlessness or headache. Though, we should try to keep our pace slow & steady.

Please do not forget to carry a water bottle, down jacket, raincoat and some dry fruits & chocolates with you. Everybody has a different pace of walking. People might not be around when you are with them. So, you have to be self-dependent in basic things.

After making an uphill trek for about 4 hours or so, we will reach a high pass where we will find Tibetan prayer flags fluttering. This is called ‘Dolma La pass’ (5800 m.). This is the highest point that we will be crossing over during this divine trip. After making a gentle descent from the pass, we will find ourselves near a tine glacial lake. This is ‘Gauri Kunda’.

From Gauri kunda, the trail leads us rapidly down through the area full of boulders and loose pebbles. Going down can be more difficult and painful than coming up. If we have taken a horse, we can’t even use it in this bit. After trekking down for another 1 & half hour or so from Gauri Kunda, we will eventually reach the valley floor. From this point on, the trail is easy & flat. It is another 2 hours of easy-walk to reach Zutulphuk from here.

NOTE:
Today, members who won’t be able to carry on their second day’s parikrama due to physical issues or any other issue, will return back to Darchen with our Sherpa staff. Since we have made a booking for them in Zuthulphuk for second day’s accommodation, we may not be able to provide the accommodation in the same hotel/ Guesthouses with those members who had returned from Yama Dwar. However, our effort will be to keep all our groups together which makes it easy to serve food and also it would be easy to take care of all.

- Deraphuk to Zutulphuk: 22 km | 9 hours (approx.)
- Elevation of Zuthulphuk: 4820 m. | 15810 fts.
