Kailash Kund, Bhaderwah

Kailash Kund, Bhaderwah

A lake situated at 12,887 ft above sea level. It is a lake shrouded in mystery and lore, and is considered a holy place for the people of Bhaderwah, in Doda district of Jammu.
The Kailash Kundyatra — a three-day holy walk — conducted every year is dedicated to the deity of Bhaderwah town, Vasuki Nag, and has been followed for thousands of years. This ritual brings a lot of pilgrims to Kailash Kund only on these three days of the procession that takes place between August and September.
The three days usually fall in the last week of August based on the Hindu calendar and thus the dates vary every year. For the exact dates of the yatra, one can check the local news from Jammu, if interested to experience the culture and tradition.
