About Laka Glacier:
- Nestled in the Dhauladhar Range of Himachal Pradesh, Laka Glacier which is also known as Laka Got Glacier is the lowest glacier of India. Only at a height of 3500 meters, we reach this glacier. The pristine location and surroundings of Laka Glacier bring nature lovers and adventure seekers together.
- The bustling Triund route, the lack of snow on the Triund trek, and the breathtaking vistas on the Laka glacier trek have all contributed to the popularity of the Laka glacier trekking Triund trek in recent years. From grasslands to rock terrains, beaming streams to shining mountains, Laka Glacier is full of everything.
