About This Tour

Discover one of Nepal’s most dramatic and rewarding trekking routes on our 16-day Annapurna Circuit with Tilicho Lake adventure. The journey begins with a scenic drive to Dharapani and ascends gradually through alpine forests, hillside villages, and the Tibetan-influenced Manang Valley. A breathtaking detour leads you to Tilicho Lake (4,919m), one of the world’s highest alpine lakes, before continuing over the iconic Thorong La Pass (5,416m). From there, descend into the sacred pilgrimage town of Muktinath and follow the windswept trails of Lower Mustang to Jomsom. Along the way, you’ll stay in cozy teahouses and experience the warmth of Gurung, Manangi, and Thakali culture. End your trek with a relaxing stay in Pokhara beside the tranquil Phewa Lake. With expert guides, carefully planned acclimatization and reliable logistics, this trek is ideal for hikers looking to combine high-altitude adventure with cultural immersion and unforgettable Himalayan scenery.
