The Doran Glacier is a glacier in East Antarctic Victoria Land . On the northern slope of the Kukri Hills, it lies between the Sollas and Marr glaciers .

The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named it in 1997 based on the name of the Doran Stream , which leads to the Taylor Valley as a meltwater flow from this glacier .
