Script error: No such module "Check for conflicting parameters". The Gilgit River (Template:Langx) is a tributary of the Indus River, flowing through Gilgit Valley of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan.[1] The upper sections of the Gilgit River are also referred to as the Gupis River and Ghizer River.
Course
Gilgit River flows through various districts including Gupis-Yasin, Ghizer and Gilgit. It originates from Shandur Lake and proceeds to join the Indus River near the towns of Juglot and Bunji. During its course, Yasin River from Yasin Valley and Karambar/Ishkoman River from Karambar Lake in Ishkoman Valley join it. Hunza River is its largest tributary, contributing over half of its mean annual volume. The confluence of Gilgit River with Indus marks the meeting point of three prominent mountain ranges: the Hindu Kush, the Himalayas, and the Karakoram.[2]
Hydrology
The catchment area of Gilgit River is Template:Cvt.[3] Before the confluence of Gilgit River with Hunza River, its mean annual discharge for the period 1981–2010 at Gilgit Gauging Station is Template:Cvt, with a minimum and maximum discharge of Template:Cvt and Template:Cvt, respectively.[3] After receiving inflow from Hunza, its mean annual discharge for the period 1981–2015 at Alam Bridge Gauging Station was Template:Cvt, with a minimum and maximum discharge of Template:Cvt and Template:Cvt, respectively.[1]
