Om Parvat

Om Parvat a mountain located on the border of Darchula District, Nepal and Pithoragarh district, Uttarakhand, India Om Parvat peak elevation is 5,590 m (18,340 ft) above sea level. It is reached by the paved motorable Pithoragagh-Lipulekh Pass Highway (PLPH), via a spur along glaciated rivulet to Om Parvat from Nabhidhang. Route to Adi Kailash, from the forks at Gunji, goes northwest via Kuthi Valley along the Kuthi Yankti river. Mount Kailash in Tibet can be viewed from India from the Old Lipulekh Pass which lies northeast of Gunji (via NH-9 motorable till the pass) and the Limpiyadhura Pass (via Kuthi Valley) which lies northwest of Gunji.

The Om Parvat and the Adi Kailash and are not one and the same, although there may be confusion in some sources. NH-9 extension from Pithoragarh goes to Gunji (Dame La). Gunji is the confluence of NW-S flowing Kuthi Yankti river and NE-S flowing Kali River. Kuthi Yankti river arises from the Limpiyadhura Pass northwest of Gunji and flows through Kuthi Valley to Gunji in south.
