A six-day fast-access route to Tilicho Lake — the world's highest lake at 4,920m — built around guided yoga and sound healing sessions with certified instructors along the way, in Manang, Khangsar and at the lake itself. The trail beyond Manang runs through the territory of blue sheep and yaks, with the final push to the lakeshore before dawn.
