The Tilicho Lake is celebrated not only for its breathtaking scenery but also for its religious significance. Surrounded by rugged, snow-clad peaks, Tilicho Lake is a pristine blue jewel set against a stark, rocky landscape. The clear waters reflect the towering mountains, creating a serene and surreal mirror-like effect.
The Annapurna Circuit with Tilicho Lake Trek is more than just a trek; it is an expedition through the most breathtaking landscapes of the Great Himalaya Trail (GHT), a journey shared with fellow hikers as we take on the challenging trails, and a spiritual adventure in the heart of nature.

A word on trekking in high altitude places
At Adventures Unlimited, we take our participant's health and safety concerns seriously. Instances of acute mountain sickness (AMS) can affect your heart, lungs, muscles, and sensory system. If one's condition is extreme and he/she has little access to treatment, difficulties can prompt swelling in the cerebrum and lungs, bringing about unconsciousness or even death.
Learning to anticipate, minimise and treat AMS when dealt with symptoms is vital in the mountains. At Adventure Unlimited, we bring our medical and monitoring equipments whenever we embark on a trip. We do not soley rely on our foreign partners and operators to supply them. Please click here to read and understand Adventures Unlimited's approach in dealing with acute mountain sickness.
