Annapurna Circuit trek with Tilicho Lake and Poon Hill takes us to the world’s highest lake in the Manang District of Nepal. The first part of the trail is that of the Annapurna circuit. However, from Manang we go to the mail valley to the west and trek up to the Tilicho Lake. Our trail again joins the Annapurna circuit route and crosses the Thorong La pass, one of the highest passes in the world. We also climb up to Poon Hill, which is famous for spectacular views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges. On our 20-day journey, we pass through forests, cross the pristine meadows, experience changes in vegetation, all the while being in the company of the glorious Himalayas.
