Trekking around Annapurna , Tilicho Lake
and Dhaulagiri Trek
Trekking around Annapurna, Tilicho Lake and Dhaulagiri
trek covers part of the famous Annapurna circuit (described
as the most diverse trek in the world), and to Tilicho lake,
the highest lake in Nepal at 4900m, if the weather permits.
The lake lies in a narrow valley and it can be avalanche
prone if there is early snowfall. We will cross the Mesokanto
pass (5123m) into the Kali Gandaki valley. Should the weather
not permit this then we would take the normal route and
cross the Thorung la pass (5415m) into the Kali Gandaki
valley.
Trekking around Dhaulagiri is an exceptional wilderness
experience that passes through staggering alpine terrain.
Until recently few trekkers ever attempted it but now foreign
trekking companies advertise it along side standard treks.
It isn't standard, being tough and demanding and has shocked
many trekkers who expected something similar to the Annapurna
Circuit or the Everest trek. It is better labeled as an
extreme route; extreme, because you need an ice-axe and
crampons, and if anyone (I.e. porters) don't have these,
a rope is necessary too. Going without a guide is for mountaineers
only. With its extended high altitude nature it should only
be attempted when snow-free - from late September to December,
or perhaps May and early June.
The reason we have planned the trek from the Annapurna
range and the Tilicho Lake is to provide ample time for
group members, staff and more importantly the porters to
acclimatize properly before going into the Dhaulagiri range
with an attempt on Dhampus peak at 6035m in contrast, all
companies say they have a good acclimatisation plan but
95% of them go the normal route, going clockwise, which
involves huge gains in altitude of more than 1600m in a
day. Chances of acute altitude sickness are high going this
conventional way.
I invite you to come join this expedition style trek amongst
some of the most stunning and tough, but extremely rewarding,
terrains. This would be one of the ultimate adventures in
the Himalaya. We have quoted a low price to this adventure
to encourage more people to join in this adventure of a
life time. In the spirit of Adventure we have quoted the
price on a near cost to cost basis.
