The visit to Lipulekh Pass (Kailash Darshan) is planned on the same day as the Om Parvat excursion. However, Lipulekh Pass is a sensitive border area and the visit is strictly subject to permission from the Indian Army and border authorities.
If permission is not granted due to security restrictions, weather conditions, road status, or administrative reasons, the Lipulekh Pass visit may be skipped or postponed without prior notice.
Please note that an additional cost is applicable for the same-day Lipulekh Pass Kailash Darshan. This amount will be informed and payable on-site only, strictly after permission approval.
No claims or disputes shall be entertained for non-coverage of Lipulekh Pass due to circumstances beyond our control.
