The Maljutki Nunatakker ( Russian Скалй Малюткй Skali Maljutki , German 'Baby Nunatakker' ) are a group of Nunatakkers in the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . On the south-eastern foothills of the Orvinfjella, they rise 21 km west-northwest of the Skeidsberget in a north-south orientation over a length of 6 km.
Cartographers from the Norsk Polar Institute mapped them using aerial photographs and measurements made by the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960). Soviet scientists who also made the naming mapped it in 1961.
