Tilicho lake - Nepal

Tilicho lake

by into-thin-air

Start off your trek as per The Annapurna Circuit as far as Manang where you will spend an extra night to acclimatise – Then the next night at Khangsar and from there to Tilicho base camp lodge (There are 2 possible routes, High and Low level so make enquiries at Khangsar to which one is the best as landslides keep changing the paths)
Then spend two nights at to Tilicho base camp lodge and visit Tilicho Lake on the day in between.
Then you have two options
1) Trek to Yak Kharka / Letdar and pick up the route to cross Thorung La
2) Return the way you came

If you wanted to cross over then passes form Tilicho lake to Jomsosm you would need a fully supported camping trek as this takes at least 3 days from Tilicho base camp lodge with no further accommodation available,
One other thing is to be aware that a lot of the paths in the Tilicho lake area shown on trekking maps don’t actually exist on the ground ;-)

Good Luck and Happy Safe Trekking
