Nordenskjöld Glacier is a large glacier in South Georgia.
The glacier flows north and has its terminus at the head of Cumberland East Bay, on the north coast of the island.[1] It was charted by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition and named after Otto Nordenskjöld, leader of the expedition. Sheridan Peak sits near the glacier's head.
