The Panorama Pass is a 250 m high mountain pass on the Ulu Peninsula in the northwest of the West Antarctic James Ross Island . It separates Berry Hill in the north from the northern foothills of the Lachman Crags in the south and connects the Giant Garden plateau in the west with the Halozetes Valley in the east.
The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named the pass on 2006 after the imposing view it offers from the Trinity Peninsula in the west to Vega Island in the east.
