Altitude / mountain sickness

Petr Liška Wrote 08.02.2013:

Due to the high altitude of almost 5.5 thousand meters above sea level, the crossing of the Thorong la pass is, due to a possible mountain sickness, the most dangerous stage of the entire trek around Annapurna. However, if you take side acclimatization trips along the way, including the ascent to Lake Tilicho, crossing the pass should not be a big problem.
