Hunza River (Urdu: دریائے ہنزہ) is the main river flowing across the Hunza Valley in the Pakistan-administered territory of Gilgit-Baltistan. It is formed by the confluence of the Chapursan and Khunjerab nalas (streams) which are fed by glaciers. It drains into the Gilgit River, which in turn flows into the Indus River.
