The Gråsteinen ( Norwegian for gray stone ) is an isolated nunatak in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . It rises 11 km southwest of the Litvillingane on the east side of the Ahlmannryggen .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named it descriptively, carried out a mapping based on aerial photographs and surveys of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960) from 1958 to 1959.
