About Tilicho Lake with Annapurna Circuit Trek
Tilicho Lake with Annapurna Circuit trek is an extraordinary journey to the Thakali settlements of Annapurna region whilst visiting Tilicho (4919m), the highest lake in the world for its size. The beauty of the turquoise lake, which is frozen most of the time of the year, gives serenity to your body and soul. Not limited to the lake, this trek in overall takes you to Muktinath--the Holy Temple of Hindu--which holds high religious value for Hindu devotees, to one of the world’s most amazing passes “Thorong La Pass”, and to the rural places of Annapurna Region. The trek allows you to experience the unique culture and tradition of the Thakali people living in the region.
This overall 17 days of trek route map starts as you arrive in Kathmandu and head on your trek starting from Syange. You will witness beautiful scenery on your way right from the start of your trek. The distinct view of Himalayas like Annapurna (8091m), Dhaulagiri (8167m), and Manaslu (8156m) will accompany you throughout the trek. Upon reaching Manang, you will get to learn about the Manangi people, their cultures, and traditions. Grazing yaks on the wide-spread meadows will fascinate you and will boost up your excitement. Through narrow ways and landslide-prone regions, you will reach the destined place, Lake Tilicho (4919m); beware of the captivating beauty of this lake. Frozen or not, the lake looks equally alluring as it sits calmly surrounded by barren hills. Finally, you head back through one of the tallest passes in the world, the Thorong La pass, which connects the districts of Manang and Mustang. On your way back, you will get to visit the holy 108 spouts of the Muktinath temple. This jaw-dropping trek is assured to bring you calmness and soothe your mind.
