Passu Glacier
Crevassed Ice
10 packages0 rating
Passu glacier lies on the south of Passu, the 21km long glacier connects the rugged mountains of Batura Muztagh to Gojal valley. The frosty-crevassed glacier, as it rises above its moraine, progresses in series of giant icy cones with Passu Peak in its backdrop. Glacier should be crossed with a local guide if you are trekking to Patundas or Batura Base Camp. Passu Glacier is also an ideal site to train for ice climbing.
