Tilicho Lake is located at the height of 4920 meter and it is the highest lake of the world.The thundered sound of avalanche and the calm of the Tilicho Lake are really amazing.

The herd of blue sheep and Yaks are another attraction of this trek. Before making this trek tourist must take clear information with the expert of this trekking. The view of the Tilicho peak is really admirable.

Accommodations

In Kathmandu we provide 2 star equivalent hotel like international guest house with bed and breakfast. In trekking we provide attached toilet room in low lands. As we arrive to higher elevation it is difficult to get attached toilet room and single room in peak season. In peak season we have to share the room. But we try to provide single room if it is possible.

Foods and drinks

In trekking we can get all kinds of food and select from menu and can have as you like. We do not recommend to eat any kinds of meat that is carried local porters from low land walking with 2-3 days. In trekking region they are not allowed to kill any animals. We recommend to eat all kind of vegetarian food and eggs. You can have meat as you arrive to Jomsom,pokhara and Kathmandu. You can get all kind of drinks in trekking route. We recommend to drink Mineral water, boiled water or purified water. Purifying tablet is provided by our guide. All kinds of cold drinks and beers are available in tea houses.

Guide and porter

We provide English speaking guide and some guide they can speak extra language like, Chinese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian. Extra language guide is not included in this cost. On request of guest we provide extra language guide with extra cost. Our guides and porters are very helpful, kind and dedicated on their duty. Every day they pass messages to us about the situation of the guest, weather in Trekking.

How hard is to go to Tilicho lake trek?

Tilicho lake trek is a hard trek due to the higher elevation though there are hundreds of beautiful breathtaking scenery. You can make it easy if you follow some rules and regulations before starting your treks towards Tilicho lake trek. Most of the time tourists suffered from high-altitude sickness and tiredness. The high-altitude sickness starts from the height of 3000 meter or 9700 feet and you have to arrive 5467 meter or 17767 feet to get Mesokanta la pass. If tourists walk slowly and steadily with many breaks on the way to trek they can acclimatize easily and the trek will be easy. On the way to trek each 1 to 2 hours there are available of tea houses and tourists could have enough liquids and rest to protect themselves from High altitude sickness and tiredness. Because there are not many up and down hills. The trekking trail goes gradually up and only few places there are stiffs. From shree kharka to Tilicho base camp the trail is very small or narrow. From above the trekking trail there comes rolling stones and it is just like a bullet of the gun if it strikes on the man. For about two hours walk we have to be very careful. From Tilicho base camp to Jomsom is the longest walk of the trek. If possible try to practice walking through up and down steeps, Jogging and swimming are equally helpful. Any exercise that is convenient to you and helps you to be fit is recommended.

 

How long does it take to get to Tilicho Lake?

 

From Kathmandu it takes minimum 5 days to arrive to Tilicho Lake if you are very fit otherwise it takes 7 days.5 days trip is one way to Tilico lake and Jomsom and coming back to Kathmandu it takes 3 more days via Jomsom and Pokhara. For the comfortable walk it takes 7 days to arrive to Tilicho Lake and 2 more days to come down to Pokhara via Jomsom. We design the itinerary on the basis of your requirements otherwise you can follow our itinerary down.
