Naar Fu Tilicho

Trip Facts

Duration : 20 days

Difficulty Level : 4

Group Size : 2 to 12

Maximum Altitude : 5300 m

The  Naar Phu Tilicho Lake and Naar Thorong Pass treks  on the Annapurna tour offer different courses than the original Annapurna tour. We cross splendid landscapes, of a great diversity and fascinating.

 

From the low Annapurna Valley with the green rice fields in tiers, then travel “in another time” in the valleys of Naar and Phu where one has the impression of being in another world.

 

In Phu the Lakhang Tashi Monastery dates from the 8th century and was built by Rimpoche Kharma Pa.

 

Phu is out of time far from everything anchored in the rock with its old houses with flat roofs to store the wood. Everything is calm and slow. Many emotions in this village.

 

.

Then at Kangla Pass One of the most beautiful views of the Annapurna Range. Then the mineral route of the ascent to Lake Tilicho , to the snowy peaks of Annapurna and Tilicho to end by crossing the pass of Mesokanto with a descent in a desert environment on Jomson.

Tilicho Lake at 4910 m is not the highest lake in the world as often said. There are lakes higher in Nepal and especially in Tibet.

Be it the circuit by the Tilicho lake or the Thorong Pass in both cases we are well acclimated to the altitude because we have already passed the Kangla La at 5200 m and we had a rest day in Manang.

Yes this circuit is exceptional. To use the expression of a trekker during this journey “it’s even more beautiful than I thought”.
