The Ant Hill Glacier is a glacier in East Antarctic Victoria Land . It flows between Ant Hill and Bareface Bluff in the Worcester Range in a northeasterly direction to the Skelton Glacier .
The New Zealand group of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1955-1958) explored it in 1957 and named it in connection with the hill of the same name. Both of them are named after the anticline discovered by the group in a ledge below the hill.
