The Bargh Glacier is a 10 km long glacier in the southwest of the Daniell Peninsula on the Borchgrevink coast of the East Antarctic Victoria Land . It flows 3 km north of the parallel Langevad Glacier in a south-westerly direction to the Borchgrevink Glacier .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own measurements and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from the period between 1960 and 1964. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it after the seismologist Kenneth Alexander Bargh, who was active in 1958 at the Hallett Station .
