TheHispar River (Urdu:دریائے ہسپر) forms from the melt water of theHispar Glacier[1][2] - a 49-kilometer-long glacier in theKarakoram mountains ofGilgit-Baltistan,Pakistan. The Hispar Glacier and river both flow northwest, passing throughHispar,Hopar andNagar (Nagir) villages until the confluence with theHunza River in theHunza Valley. Road conditions are spectacular at best, treacherous at worst. In August 2006, a bridge below Hispar village was condemned, and the Hunza River washed the road away at the confluence, eliminating all vehicular access to the entire valley for some months.[citation needed]
