We are not sure you understand why trekking to  tilicho lake is such a big thing. Thus, let us take a moment to mention.

If you want to trip high altitude alpine lawns in Nepal Himalayas, possibilities are that you would have to trek for at least 10-12 days before you can step onto one. This is because most alpine meadows start at around 1000 meters, when you have just crossed the tree line. This requires 4-5 days of hard trekking to culminate. On most high altitude treks in Nepal you’ll encounter meadows from a condense forest, mostly of pine, juniper and rhododendron. The sudden change in views are startling and beautiful. While most of these meadows are a delight to behold, some are more special than others. The ones on world’s highest Tilicho lake trek are among these.

After making world’s elevated almost 4,919 m/16,134 ft thrilling Tilicho lake, trekkers move towards Yak Kharka. After that, rise to make a hit with 5,416 meters high elevation of Thorung La pass. successful meet with Thorung-La pass, trekkers trek to the bottom of Muktinath at 3,800 m/12,464 ft.

No doubt,  this part of tilicho lake trek is toughest.

One night residing at the most pilgrimage site of Muktinath, trekkers make a move to Jomsom. At Jomsom trekkers will have a option whether fly for Pokhara or continue the trek halting at different places like, Kalapani, Tatopani, Ghorepani and finally Pokhara, it takes more 4 days, even if trekkers are making Annapurna Circuit trek this is well-suited for them. For extremely exhausted trekkers who accomplished the high elevation of Thorung-La pass they can end their tilicho lake side trek at Jomsom airport.
