Milam Glacier

One of the biggest glaciers in Kumaon region, mighty Milam is a perfect trail for trekking. Spread over an area of 37 sq km, at an altitude of 4268 m in Pithoragarh district of Uttarakhand, the trekking trail to Milam glacier features rivers, water streams, canyons, crevasses and more.
The village of Milam lies near the snout of the glacier; Munsiyari, further down the Goriganga valley, is the base for the trek to the glacier. In the year 1962, the area was declared as a ghost town because it faced significant destruction during the Indo-Sino war, leaving behind the wreckages. However in 1994, entry to the city was allowed to the trekkers and the other visitors. Months between March and May are considered as the best time for trekking.
If walking on the glaciers, passing through the forest, gazing up at a clear blue sky and enjoying the best of nature is what interest you the most then a trek to Milam Glacier can be the best idea for your adventure vacation. The Milam glaciers, located at an elevation of 4268 m, sprawling over an area of 37 sq km, have all the reasons on this earth to be on the bucket list of every trekker.
Trail, from the base camp, Munsyari, till the glacier, is bestowed with a unique blend of splendor and thrill. It will be little tiresome as the trail might show challenges on some turns but the result, breathtaking view of the Mt. Trishuli (7070m) and Hardeol (7151m), is worth all the effort and money.
