Tilicho Lake Trek Highlights

Tilicho Lake Trek Overview

The Tilicho Lake Trek reveals the breathtaking Tilicho Lake, situated at an impressive 5,200 meters. Collecting the glacial runoff from Annapurna and Thorong Peak, it proudly stands as one of the world’s highest lakes.

Our adventure begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Syange in a private tourist vehicle, lasting between 7 to 9 hours, depending on road conditions and traffic. The trek kicks off from Syange, following the Marshyangdi River, offering stunning views of Manaslu and Himal Chuli to the east.

This incredible journey takes you through charming villages inhabited by diverse ethnic groups, each offering spectacular and majestic Himalayan vistas. The route mirrors the Annapurna Circuit, but with a thrilling twist.

Instead of heading north from Manang to Tanki Manang and Yak Kharka, the Tilicho Lake trek veers west through Khangshar Village, ultimately reaching the awe-inspiring Tilicho Lake.

We then trek to Yak Kharka, conquer the Thorong La Pass at 5,416 meters, and descend to the sacred town of Muktinath, before reaching Jomsom. From Jomsom, a stunning 30-minute flight takes us to Pokhara.

Alternatively, from Tilicho Lake, adventurers have the option to cross the challenging Moesokanta La Pass to Jomsom instead of Thorong La Pass. This route requires additional equipment, including tents, for the ultimate trekking experience.
