Nestinari-Nunatakker ( Bulgarian Нестинарски нунатаци Nestinarski nunatazi ; English Nestinari nunataks ) are two Nunatakker , 470  m and 520  m high, on the Livingston Island in the archipelago of South Shetland Islands . They rise 3.8 km east-southeast of Kuzman Knoll , 1 km northwest of Plana Peak , 2.5 km north-northeast of Levski Peak and 1.5 km east-northeast of Ravda Peak in the middle of the Huron Glacier .

Bulgarian scientists mapped them between 2004 and 2005 while surveying the Tangra Mountains . The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2005 after Nestinari , a traditional fire walk in Bulgaria .
