Khatling Glacirer




Khatling Glacier is the source of the Bhilangna River. This lateral glacier is surrounded by snow peaks of the Jogin group (6466 m), Sphetic Pristwar (6905 m), Barte Kauter (6579 m), Kirti Stambh (6902 m) and Meru. This makes it a favorite hunt for trekkers. The moraines on its sides look like standing walls of gravel mud. The glacier can be accessed by a 45 km trek from Ghuttu.
