The Darwari Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Дървари Lednik Darwari ) is a 9 km long and 1.7 km wide glacier on the Nordenskjöld Coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . From the southeastern slopes of the Detroit Plateau it flows southwest of the Borjana Glacier and northeast of the Sajchar Glacier between the Rice Bastion and the Grivitsa Ridge to Mundraga Bay , which it reaches 6 km north of Fothergill Point .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2011 after the town of Darwari in northern Bulgaria .
