The Heikampen (Norwegian for highland peak ) is a 2675 m high mountain in the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . In Sverdrupfjella it rises at the southeast end of the Robinheia .
The first aerial photographs were taken during the German Antarctic Expedition (1938–1939). Norwegian cartographers, who also named it descriptively, mapped it using aerial photographs and surveys of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (NBSAE, 1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
