Meola Glacier, Mountain glacier in Pithoragarh district, India
Meola Glacier extends at the base of five Panchchuli peaks in the Lassar Yankti valley, combining with Saun Glacier to form the Panchchuli Glacier system.
The glacier served as a traditional passage for shepherds and travelers moving through the Kumaon Himalayas, connecting different mountain communities over generations.
Local communities in the Kumaon region maintain deep connections with the glacier, considering it an essential part of their mountain landscape and water resources.
Visitors reach the glacier through a trek from Tawaghat to Bailing, Son, and Duktu, with the final approach requiring a one-hour walk along Duktu Nala.
The glacier's snout, located at 3,600 meters elevation, functions as a base camp for mountaineers attempting to climb the surrounding Panchchuli peaks.
