The Hidden Gorge ( English for Hidden Canyon is) a short, 10 m wide and 30 m deep gorge on the Ingrid Christensen Coast of the East Antarctic Princess Elisabeth country . In the Vestfold Mountains it runs in a north-south orientation from the northwest end of the Hidden Valley to Krok Lake . At the head end there is an icefall , over which the Hidden Valley is drained.
The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia named it so because it is hidden by an island in Krok Lake.
