You can also plan Tilicho trek along with Thorang-La Pass (5416metres) which would be an amazing experience.

Most memorable expedition in my life!

Like they say Heaven is myth Nepal is real...You will exactly feel the same when u visit Tilicho Lake...One of highest altitude lake in the world..Trek difficulty level is Moderate to High depending on your stamina (if you can finish 5km in 30min this will be pretty easy one). You absolutely don't need a guide or package for this trek.

One of the most beautiful places on earth.

You will forget all pain and sorrow once you reach here. One of the best place to visit in nepal.

One of the world's highest and beautiful lake in Annapurna trekking region in Nepal.

Visited the tilicho lake at 19th October 2022 . Probably the toughest trek of my life till now .The road was fully covered with snow which makes us much more difficult as the road was more slippery but once we reach the lake we realized it was worth taking a risk . We saw three avalanche once we reach the lake . Overall it was a great experience so i recommend everyone to visit this lake atleast once in theirlifetime.

ilicho Lake Trekking is one of the most exciting and dangerous trekking in the world. Tilicho Lake is known as the highest lake in the world. Whose height is said to be 4949 meters above sea level. Some of the major lakes of the world are Mansarovar (China) 4590 meters and Hemkund Sahib Badrinath India's height is said to be 4633 meters. Tilicho Lake is located in Manang district of Nepal. Whose subtitle is cough. Earlier the trekking area of ​​Tilicho Lake was about 8 to 10 days but now due to the train going till Khansar, its trekking time has been reduced to only 4 days. The height of Khansar is 3734 meters and the temperature is minimum -10 degree even in summer. The depth of Tilicho Lake is about 85 meters and Chetrafal is 4.8 kilometers. Although a team of mountaineers has discovered another lake named Kajinsara Lake in the same district whose height is more than 5200 meters but it has not been verified yet. Tilicho Lake trekking has few facilities due to its inaccessibility and the dangerous roads further add to its inaccessibility. It is situated at Tilicho Lake amidst the Annapurna Range of the Himalayas. Between Khansar and Tilicho, there is a provision for trekkers to stay at Tilicho Base Camp, whose height is said to be 4820 meters, the temperature here is said to be -20 even in summer. After going to such a height here, one has to face headache, vomiting and breathing problems. The most troublesome here are the icy winds blowing at 30 kilometers per hour. Since Tilicho Lake is extremely inaccessible, it is not possible to stay here. After reaching here, the trekkers immediately leave for the base camp. The second feature of Tilicho is that it is a completely fresh water lake and according to Nepal's Department of Hydrology and Meteorology, no aquatic life is present in this lake. Tilocho Lake also has some religious beliefs. According to Hindu religious people, Tilicho Lake is the same which has been described in Ramayana. In Ramayana it is described as Kag Bhusundi Lake. It is said that Kag Bhusundi took the form of a crow and narrated the story of Ramayana to the bird Raj Garoon on the banks of this lake. Trekking of Tilicho Lake is very exciting but to go here, it is more important to be strong of mind than of body. Many people give up in the middle or become seriously ill.

My top liked trails although it is quite dangerous to reach Tilicho base camp. The view is stunning and lake is really beautiful but I am sad the glacier are melting so badly

Worlds heighest lake , one of the most beafutiful place in Nepal , at a height of 4900+ m , the view is incredible , best time to visit is from 5 am to 10am after that it gets extremely windy, i went their on mid november it was -13°c , way to lake is extremely tough and risky

I loved the place

It was the most amazing experience being there. Really My country is full of natural beauty, i am proud to be Nepali. The inner peace i felt as soon as i reach there was mesmerizing. It helps to forget all the difficulties that i faced to be there. It is a really beautiful place and worth a visit. This lake is located at the highest altitude of 4919m which is the world's highest.

The hardest trek you will encounter on the Annapurna Circuit. Its a steep climb from Tilicho Base Camp all the way to the lake. The trail is easy to follow and fair but as you get higher up the altitude will start to push against you. As you cross many landslide areas you have to be extra cautious. We saw many rocks tumble down at high speeds which could be dangerous. Even in the summer there is quite alot of snow on the top that you will have to walk on, crampons may be a good idea although we didn't bring any. The lake itself and the surrounding environment is peacefully astounding.

A trip worth the effort... despite the difficulties the moment you reach the lake viewpoint above 4900m, the breath taking view is worth the troubles you overcome... a must go to destination for trek lovers... also, recommended to slowly acclimatise before starting the trek from the base camp... remember to take meds that may come in handy for the trek...

Tilicho Lake is a lake located in the Manang district of Nepal, 55 kilometres (34 mi) as the crow flies from the city of Pokhara. It is situated at an elevation of 4,919 metres (16,138 ft) in the Annapurna range of the Himalayas. Another source lists the elevation of Lake Tilicho as being 4,949 metres (16,237 ft). According to the Nepali Department of Hydrology & Meteorology (2003), no aquatic organism has been recorded in the lake. Tilicho Lake is the destination of one of the most popular side hikes of the Annapurna Circuit trek. The hike takes additional 3–4 days. No camping is required, as new lodges have been built between Manang and the lake. The final approach to the lake is done in a day hike from the lodge at Tilicho Base Camp. Trekkers attempting the Annapurna Circuit route usually cross the watershed between Manang and Kali Gandaki valleys over the 5416 meters high Thorong La pass. The alternate route, skirting Tilicho Lake from the north, has been gaining popularity. This route is more demanding and requires at least one night of camping. There are no teahouses or lodges past the Tilicho Base Camp lodge some kilometers east of the lake and the next village of Thini Gaon in the Kali Gandaki valley. Most groups spend two nights between these places. There are two passes leading to Thini Gaon and Jomsom; Mesokanto La and Tilicho North pass known also as Tilicho "Tourist pass". These routes via Tilicho Lake are more often closed by snow than the higher Thorong La. Tilicho Lake was the site of one of the highest ever altitude scuba dives. A Russian diving team, consisting of Andrei Andryushin, Denis Bakin, and Maxim Gresko, conducted a scuba dive in the lake in 2000. Hindus believe that Tilicho Lake is the ancient Kak Bhusundi Lake mentioned in the epic Ramayana. The sage Kak Bhusundi is believed to have first told the happenings of Ramayana to Garuda - king of birds, near this lake. The sage took the form of a crow while telling the story to Garuda. Crow translates to Kak in Sanskrit, hence the name Kak Bhusndi for the sage.

Yes the tilicho lake is really beautiful. But don't be fooled by its beauty. It's a very difficult place to reach. Due to its high altitude, it's very difficult to walk as you run out of breath really quickly. My suggestion is do not carry any luggage. One pair of clothes is enough. Be sure to take a nice trekking shoes, walking sticks and sunglasses (because the sun's reflection on snow is very bright). Instead of luggage take water. Leave your other belongings at khangsar, do not take it to base camp. The hotel owners at khangsar will let you store your belongings there as they also have lodging service in base camp. The rooms in base camps are cheap but the food and water can be very expensive. Be sure to have a ventilation in your room while you sleep since the oxygen is really low.

Had a beautiful trekking experience. The journey was tough but the view was definitely worth it!! Beautiful route, good conversations with people along the journey. One of the best experiences of my life!!

One of the best treaking destination of Nepal..
