The Kashin Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Къшин Lednik Kashin ) is an 8 km long and 2.7 km wide glacier on the Fallières coast of Graham lands north of the Antarctic Peninsula . It lies north of the Marwodol Glacier and east-southeast of the Bader Glacier and flows in a northerly direction between the Shapkarev Buttress and the Rudozem Heights to the Bourgeois Fjord , into which it joins southwest of the Perutz Glacier .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2016 after the town of Kashin in northern Bulgaria .
