Annapurna Circuit Trek via Tilicho Lake 15 Days

15 Days Annapurna Circuit Trek via TiIicho Lake is a beautiful combination of trekking that takes you to the highest lake in the World. Tilicho Lake (4,919m from sea level) is the lake located at the highest altitude in the world. Annapurna Circuit Trek via TiIicho Lake is one of the most famous treks in Nepal with a brief look at the highest altitude lake, stunning landscapes, hot springs, widest pass (Thorong la), blue sheep, and many more.

Along the route, we will see several beautiful sceneries and areas that reach from subtropical to alpine terrains. The Annapurna Circuit trek offers a remarkable panorama of Annapurna (8,097 m), Manaslu, Machhapuchhre, Dhaulagiri (8,167 m), and Tukuche along with numerous other dazzling peaks in the background. The trek is very wonderful, with various rhododendrons covering whole hills in their normal red hue in the spring and numerous orchid forests surrounding the trail. You get a chance to learn about the Tibetan lifestyle that firmly runs in Mustang valley. The circuit takes you through several beautiful areas. There is a small opportunity of witnessing a snow panther in Yak Kharka along with blue sheep. You will also see the wonder of the blue icy lake of Tilicho. The lake Tilicho reflects the beautiful surrounding mountains which are really lovely and interesting sights to see since it is formed by the glacier melting from Annapurna. The unique combination of nature and culture is what makes the Annapurna Circuit Trek via TiIicho Lake one of the most popular trekking routes in the world.

VACCINATION FOR NEPAL    

Travelers should consult with their physician or update on vaccination requirements before travel. (Your doctor or the health-care provider will determine what you will need, depending on factors such as your health and immunization history, areas of the country you will be visiting, and planned activities). For traveling to Nepal, we recommend you to take vaccination of Polio, Tetanus, Typhoid, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Rabies, etc. However, it is not mandatory but recommended.

ALTITUDE SICKNESS (ACUTE MOUNTAIN SICKNESS)

Altitude sickness, also known as AMS (acute mountain sickness), is caused by a lack of oxygen at high altitudes (normally above 3,000m). It occurs as the result of our bodies’ inability to adapt to a sudden increase in altitude. If given time, our bodies will adjust and a gradual ascent will decrease the possibility of altitude sickness.

PREVENTION OF AMS: Go slowly, drink a lot of water, and pay attention to the sensations of your body. If symptoms occur you have climbed too far for the day. Rest at the same altitude will give you time to acclimatize and usually relieve mild symptoms. 

MILD SYMPTOMS: Headache, nausea, loss of appetite, and mild shortness of breath with minimal exertion, difficulty sleeping, dizziness or lightheadedness, mild weakness, fatigue, a general unwell feeling. 

SERIOUS SYMPTOMS: The inability to recover from shortness of breath with rest, severe persistent headache, low urine output, vomiting, confusion, delirium, loss of coordination. These require immediate descent as acclimatization will not take place at the same altitude. 

The key is to trek slowly, carry a light pack and just take it easy. Allow your body the time it needs to acclimatize.

ARRIVAL INSTRUCTION

Upon your arrival at TIA International Airport, our company's representatives are stationed to pick you up. They will be holding your name sign along with the company's name in it. Our office representative will escort you to your hotel in Kathmandu.

We had a group of 5, and AAT helped us manage everything from accommodation to duffle bags as we had no past trekking experience. The guide was very helpful and entertaining.
