Batura Glacier, 57 kilometers (35 mi) long, is one of the largest and longest glaciers outside of the polar regions. It lies in the upper Hunza (Gojal) region of Hunza District, Gilgit-Baltistan in Pakistan. It is just north of the massifs of Batura, at 7,795 meters (25,574 ft.), and Passu, at 7,500 meters (24,600 ft.). The glacier flows west to east. The lower portions can be described as a grey sea of rocks and gravelly moraine, bordered by a few summer villages and pastures with herds of sheep, goats, cows and yaks and where roses and juniper trees are common.
