World’s 7 Largest Glaciers by Continent Siachen Glacier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Siachen glacier is the highest battleground on earth. It is a place where India and Pakistan always meet in a frozen standoff. It is the world’s largest non polar glacier, Siachen glacier is sometimes called third pole. This glacier is well known for its scarce population and treacherous climatic conditions.
