Bartang

A powerful glacial-fed river in the Pamirs.

  • Location: Tajikistan

The Bartang River is one of the five tributaries of the Panj (Amu Darya). It is fed by numerous glaciers and dominates the valley of the same name. The river carries so much water in the summer that the valley becomes inaccessible by car in many places. In winter and spring, avalanches block the roads, making the Bartang Valley impassable for several months of the year. Many villages in the valley are completely cut off from the outside world during this time.
