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.
