The Pautalia Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Паутали lednik Pautali ) is a glacier on the Burgas Peninsula in the southeast of Livingston Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . In the Delchev Ridge of the Tangra Mountains , it is bounded to the west by the Petko Voyvoda Peak , to the north by the Kalojan Nunatak and to the east by the Shabla Knoll . It flows in a south-easterly direction to Bransfieldstrasse .
The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2005 after the previous name for the city of Kyustendil in western Bulgaria .
