Goriganga is a river that originates from the snout of Milam glacier. It is also fed by glaciers and streams flowing from the eastern slopes of the east wall of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, and those flowing west from the high peaks of Panchchuli. There are several spots along the banks of the river that are ideal for day picnics. A drive along the banks of the Goriganga takes you past the villages of Madkot, Choribagar and Bangapani – all so quaint and with little trace of the 21st century !
