Thajiwas Glacier

Sonmarg · India

Thajiwas Glacier

An easily accessible glacier just outside Sonmarg town, offering pony rides, short treks and summer snow sledging.

Thajiwas Glacier sits about three kilometers from Sonmarg town at close to 3,000 meters, making it one of the most accessible glaciers in the Kashmir Valley. A short one to two hour trek through alpine meadows and pine forest leads to its snow covered slopes, or visitors can hire a pony from the Sonmarg market for a more relaxed ride up. Even in peak summer the glacier stays covered in snow, drawing families for sledging alongside trekkers headed further into the surrounding peaks.
