Hispar Glacier has a spectular view which is picturesque. In Ladakh there is the Baltistan area which has Karakoram Range and towards its south slopes is located the Hispar glacier. In Shigar River a very large stream flows from the glacier which later goes to Indus River. The main glacier is the third largest which is of around 60 kms. This glacier can be accessed through Skardu that is situated in Ladakh.

There are a number of glaciers that are small that flows into the main glacier on both sides of the coliseum in which it is situated. The center portion of the glacier has vast snow filled and the sides have fragments that crumble with the large portion of ice that is moving.
