Overview
A side trip from the Annapurna Circuit to Tilicho Lake (about 4919 m), one of the highest lakes of its size in the world, set beneath the ice cliffs of Tilicho Peak. The route follows the Marsyangdi valley to Manang, then branches west through Khangsar and over unstable scree slopes to Tilicho Base Camp. After visiting the lake, the trek rejoins the circuit via Yak Kharka and crosses the Thorong La (5416 m) to Muktinath, finishing at Jomsom for the flight to Pokhara. The scree section above Tilicho Base Camp needs care, especially after snowfall.
