The Haulaway Point (English for Holwegspitze is) a small and rocky headland on the northeast side of Stonington Island before Fallières coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula .
The headland was first mapped in 1940 during the United States Antarctic Service Expedition (1939-1941). Scientists from the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey took new measurements between 1946 and 1947. They named it that because it is one of the best places on the island to land goods.
