Khawa Lori Mountain
卡瓦洛日神山
A snow-capped peak on the border of Xinlong and Garze counties, at about 5,992 meters, one of the Four Sacred Mountains of the local Tibetan people, with permanent snow and glaciers.
Khawa Lori is at the northern end of the Shaluli Mountains. Its summit is covered in permanent snow, its peaks are steep and angular, and glaciers and high-altitude lakes surround its base. Most visitors admire it from a distance along the road between northern Xinlong and Garze. Approaching the foot of the mountain requires contacting a local guide and preparing for high altitude, while summiting is a professional mountaineering activity. Mobile signal is poor in the mountains, so tell someone your itinerary before you leave and carry plenty of supplies.
