The Tilicho Lake trekking in the highest located glacial Lake of Nepal. This is the best place to witness the glacier lake as well as the mountainous range in the vicinity of the Annapurna Circuit Trekking trail. Nepal Hiking Trek offers this magnificent trekking experience in the Himalayan belt of Nepal.

The trekking in Nepal is mystique affair and this trial supports this fact too. Tilicho Lake trekking starts from the bus driver to the Lamjung Beshisahar. The Lamjung district of Nepal is very significant because of the historical events attached to it. The trekking starts from Beshisahar up to the Khangsar Village similar to the Annapurna Circuit Trekking. For the circuit trekking, the trail leads towards Yak Kharka but for the Tilicho trekking, the trail moves to pass by the Khangsar Village. The glacial lake lies majestically up in the mountains. The views of the Annapurna Mountains, Tent Peak, and other Himalayan ranges can be experienced from the Tilicho Lake. This lake is situated at an altitude of 4919m and regarded as the highest located Lake of Nepal. Once you have been mesmerized by the view of the majestic Tilicho Lake the trek move towards more daunting and challenging passes of the Annapurna Circuit Trekking. The Tilicho Lake to Yak Kharka then passing by the Thorong La Pass (5416m) provides the wilderness adventure experience. Once you have passed the Thorong La then the trip follows the Muktinath Jomsom trail. The view of the Nilgiri on your left and barren Mustang region on your right at the banks of Kaligandaki River helps to forget all the pains endured upon coming to this place. From Jomsom, the trekking ends and you will be taken to Pokhara by flight.
