Hanging Valley is very common in

A High mountains
B Sub-Arctic region
C Glaciated areas
D Coastal belt

Correct Answer: Glaciated areas

A hanging valley is a smaller side valley left 'hanging' above the main U-shaped valley formed by a tributary glacier. A hanging valley can be termed as an intermediately valley above another valley in an elevated zone. These are mostly found in glaciated areas.
