The Gluvreklettbreen (Norwegian for canyon rock glacier ) is a glacier in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . In the Gjelsvikfjella it flows between the Von Essenskarvet and the Terningskarvet in a north-westerly direction.

The first aerial photographs were taken during the German Antarctic Expedition in 1938/39 under the direction of polar explorer Alfred Ritscher . Norwegian cartographers, who also made the name, mapped it on the basis of surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
