Overview

The Passu Glacier spills down from the Batura Muztagh range directly beside Passu village, its jagged blue-white ice visible from the Karakoram Highway and reachable on foot for a closer look, an accessible glacier compared to the multi-day trek required to reach Baltoro.

History

The glacier has retreated visibly over recent decades, a change tracked by researchers studying Karakoram glacial dynamics and one increasingly discussed by local guides when showing visitors the ice front today versus historic photographs.
