Best Time for Mount Kangrinboqe Kora

The ideal months for the kora (circumambulation) around Mount Kangrinboqe are August and September. October is also feasible, yet the weather turns rather cold by then.

The mountain is closed to visitors in winter, so kora is not possible during this period.

If you suffer from severe altitude sickness along the way, it is highly advised to stop your journey for the sake of your health. Every year, some travelers lose their lives to altitude sickness while undertaking the kora. Therefore, please act within your physical limits and do not push yourself too hard. When you reach your breaking point, take proper rest or end the trip ahead of schedule. Everyone needs to judge their own physical condition wisely.
