Tilicho base camp and Around Annapurna trek

                        Tilicho base camp and around Annapurna trekking is fantastic trekking trail in Annapurna area. Tilicho lake and around Annapurna trek offer, to reach the highest located Tilicho lake(4919m) and Annapurna pass (Thorung la pass 5416m) for adventure traveler in Nepal. Tilicho Lake is one of those places that have had next to mythic connotation. It was for long almost totally closed save for a few climbers and expeditions, and since 1974, when Nixon changed the China policy, part of the area above Thini on the Jomosom side became a very off-limits military area. From the Manang side it was rarely if ever visited. The trekking path to Tilicho was “a figment of some ones fantasy” and the locals in Manang had little knowledge of the route too, and were often thought to be slightly unfriendly, as they were known for not being particularly keen on working as human beasts of burden for various expeditions that had passed. Tilicho Lake  collects the glacial melt of the entire northern slopes of Annapurna and Thorong Peak it is claimed to be the highest lake in the world. In 2001, Hindu pilgrims from around the world flocked to the lake convinced it is a holy spot mentioned in the Ramayan – a holy book of the Hindus.

                        Tilicho lake & Annapurna circuit trek starts right from Besisahar which goes along the Marshyangdi River, with great views of Manaslu and Himal Chuli to the east. This magnificent trek leads you to the fine village inhabited by a wide diversity of people from different ethnic groups, offering spectacular and majestic views of the white Himalayas.  We have customized this route as it is basically the same as Annapurna Circuit, from Manang instead of taking the valley north to Tanki Manang and Yak Kharka this route goes to the main valley to the west passes through the Khanshar Village (The Last Village of Nepal) and trek up to Tilicho lake, then we travel to Yak Kharka then up to pass of Thorung La at elevation of 5416 meters. From the pass of Thorung La the treks lead down to Muktinath then to Jomsom from where thirty five minutes scenic flights take you to the Pokhara or continue trek to Ghorepani poon hill if trekkers wish to make trekking in Annapurna loop . HJT Trekking professional arrange the Tilicho lake –Annapurna round treks according to trekkers holiday schedule with amazing trekking experience of Nepal Himalayas.
