The Armira Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Армира lednik Armira ) is a 3 km long glacier on Smith Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . It flows from the southeast slopes of the Imeon Range southeast of Slaveykov Peak and east of Neofit Peak in a southeast direction to Yarebitsa Cove , which it reaches southwest of Ivan Asen Point .
Bulgarian scientists mapped it in 2008. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in the same year after the Armira River in southeastern Bulgaria .
