Emergency or Medical
The Kailash Mansarovar Yatra takes place in a remote, high-altitude region where health and safety risks are real. Being prepared for emergency situations—especially altitude-related illnesses—is crucial to ensure a safe and successful pilgrimage.
At Sunny Holidays Nepal, we prioritize your safety by coordinating closely with local medical teams, evacuation providers, and our experienced guides who are trained to handle health emergencies in high-altitude conditions.
Key Emergency and Medical Support Details:
- High-Altitude Sickness (AMS): Symptoms like headache, nausea, dizziness, and shortness of breath can occur. Travelers are advised to acclimatize properly and stay hydrated.
- Emergency Evacuation: Helicopter evacuation can be arranged in serious cases, especially for severe AMS or injuries. Travel insurance covering emergency evacuation is mandatory.
- First Aid: Our support team carries a basic medical kit and oxygen cylinders. Medical facilities are limited in the region, so all travelers should carry personal medications.
- Medical Team Access: In case of emergencies, local medical support can be contacted in coordination with our ground staff.
- Pre-Travel Health Check: We strongly recommend a medical check-up before the trip, especially for those with pre-existing conditions.
Your well-being is our top priority. With the right preparation and support, your journey to Mount Kailash can be both safe and spiritually fulfilling.
