OVERVIEW

The people of Johar, as the Milam valley is locally known, were traders whose caravans crossed from India into Tibet by the high passes of Unta Dhura and Kungribhingri La. Once the trading season was over the entire population of Milam and the surrounding areas migrated to Munsyari or lower during winter. Trade stopped with the Indo-China conflict of 1962 and these once prosperous villages are now deserted. However the trail still exists, linking the villages . Munsyari is the starting point of Milam Glacier Trek.Milam Glacier is about 28 km long, biggest glacier of the Kumaon, Uttarakhand. It originates from the slope of Kohli and Trishul peaks and situated on the south facing slope of the main Himalayan range. Milam Village which is located near the glacier is one of the highest villages in the Himalayan range.The other destination of the trek which is Nanda Devi East Base Camp is the closest an admirer of the Himalayas can get to witnessing the beauty of the sister peaks – Nanda Devi and Nanda Devi East – standing in the centre of a ring of peaks – majestic and aloof.
