Mount Llana (English; Bulgarian Връх Ляна Wrach Ljana ) is a 1,300 m high and icy mountain on Clarence Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . It rises 3.68 km north of Mount Irving and 2 km south-southwest of Jerez Peak at the northern end of Urda Ridge . The Bersame Glacier is to the west and the Highton Glacier is to the east of it. It is connected to Jerez Peak via the Soyka Saddle .
British scientists mapped it in 1972 and 2008. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2014 after the Spanish navigator José de la Llana, who in 1762 probably discovered the Shag Rocks off South Georgia .
