The Hallgrenskarvet is a 2337 m high and mostly icy mountain with a steep and rocky north face in the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . It rises 43 km southwest of the Neumayer steep face in the Kirwanveggen of Maudheimvidda .
Norwegian cartographers named the mountain and mapped it using surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960). It is named after Stig Eugen Hallgren (1925–2014), photographer of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition.
