Service Description

PACKAGE OVERVIEW Kolahoi Glacier Trek is a classic Kashmir trek that takes us through lush green valleys, shady forest slopes fed by gushing streams, into an alpine meadow landscape and amazing views of the Himalayas all around. Kolahoi glacier is one of the longest glaciers in Jammu and Kashmir and in the past it extended for at least 35 km. in the Pleistocene there have been three advances of Kolahoi glacier and the last one of them was a major advance when the glacier extended as far as Pahalgam. Kolahoi glacier being the huge one amongst the Glaciers of the valley has its unique position. The melt-water stream of Kolahoi glacier is known as the West Liddar River that joins the East Liddar River originating from Shesnag Lake at Pahalgam (35 km from the snout). The river Liddar merges with main river ‘Jhelum’ at village gur, Anantnag after traveling a course of about 70 km from Kolahoi to gur. Kolahoi glacier is about 5 km long and it flows from the north-west of a neve field covering about 35 km. At one end of this neve, the field is the north-eastern cirque of Kolahoi Horn. This neve field also feeds 3 other glaciers. The easternmost of these flows northward and its meltwater enters the Sind River. The other 2 terminate within the hanging valley glaciers along the eastern wall of Kolahoi glacier. The Cirque on the north-western face of Kolahoi Horn feeds a hanging valley glacier which descends along the southern valley wall and the cirque on the southern face of Kolahoi Horn feeds a glacier which melts before it descends to the Aru Valley.
