Cape Rundingen ( English ; Norwegian Rundingen 'Rundberg' ) is a 5 km wide ice cap in the ice shelf belt on the Ingrid Christensen coast of the East Antarctic Princess Elisabeth Land . It is 66 km northeast of the Walkabout Rocks , which form the northeast end of the Vestfold Mountains.
Norwegian cartographers, who also named it, mapped it in 1946 using aerial photographs from the Lars Christensen expedition in 1936/37 . The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia translated this name into English in 1992.
