The Nebelbach is a creek in the south of the Fildes Peninsula of King George Island , the largest of the South Shetland Islands . It rises a few hundred meters north of the source of Lichenbach and flows parallel to it (and thus to the coast of Fildes Strait ) eastwards to Hydrographers Cove , a side bay of Maxwell Bay , which it reaches immediately north of Dyke Point .

As part of two German expeditions to the Fildes Peninsula in 1981/82 and 1983/84 under the direction of Dietrich Barsch (Geographical Institute of the University of Heidelberg ) and Gerhard Stäblein (Geomorphological Laboratory of the Free University of Berlin ), the brook was together with numerous others until then unnamed geographic features of the Fildes peninsula and renamed the Scientific Committee on Antarctic research (Scientific Committee on Antarctic research, SCAR) reported.
