The Enravota Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Енравота lednik Enrawota ) is a 10 km long and 3.5 km wide glacier on the Nordenskjöld coast of Grahamland on the Antarctic Peninsula . It flows southwest of the Wratschesch Glacier and north of the lower section of the Drygalski Glacier from the southern slopes of the Ruth Ridge in a south-easterly direction to the Drygalski Glacier, which it reaches east of the Bekker-Nunatakker .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Antarctic Geographical Names Commission named it in 2013 after the first Bulgarian martyr , Saint Boyan-Enravota (9th century).
