The Natani Nunatak is a 1250 m high nunatak in Queen Elizabeth Land in West Antarctica . In the Patuxent Range of the Pensacola Mountains, it rises 2.5 km north-northeast of the foothills of Snake Ridge .
The United States Geological Survey mapped it based on its own measurements and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1956 to 1966.
