The Dragoman Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Драгоман lednik Dragoman ) is a 2.6 km long glacier on Smith Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . From the southeast slopes of the Imeon Range it flows southeast of the Zavet Saddle and south of Mount Foster in a southeast direction to Ivan Asen Cove on the Bransfield Strait .

Bulgarian scientists mapped it in 2008. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in the same year after the town of Dragoman in western Bulgaria .
