Milam Glacier is a remote yet enthralling destination located in the Kumaon Himalayas, near Munsiyari in Uttarakhand, India. It is nestled amidst the peaks of Trishul, Hardeol, and Rishi Pahar at an elevation of approximately 5,500 meters above sea level. This impressive glacier spans around 14 km in length and is a source of the Milam River, a tributary of the Goriganga River. Trekking to Milam Glacier is a strenuous but rewarding journey, offering spectacular views of the majestic Himalayan Mountains. Along the route, trekkers can witness a variety of fauna, stunning mountain landscapes, quaint villages, and ancient trade routes. The trail passes through forests with a wide range of flora and crossed over wooden bridges, with the opportunity to spot high altitude wildlife in their natural habitat. The region holds significant historical importance as it was once a major trade route between India and Tibet, evidence of which can be seen in the local culture and heritage.
