The Breniza Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Бреница Lednik Breniza ) is a 14 km long and 4.5 km wide glacier on the Oskar-II. coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . From the southern slopes of the Foster Plateau it flows southwest of the Drygalski Glacier and west of the Rogosch Glacier in a southerly direction and flows east of Mount Quandary and the Hektoria Glacier into the Vaughan Inlet .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2012 after localities in the north and northeast of Bulgaria .
