The Podvis Col (English, Bulgarian седловина Подвис sedlowina Podwis ) is an icy and 1494 m high mountain saddle at the Davis Coast of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . It extends for a mile between Korten Ridge in the northwest and the Detroit Plateau in the southeast. The Sabine Glacier is to the north and the Temple Glacier is southwest of it.
German and British scientists mapped it together in 1996. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2010 after the village of Podwis in southeastern Bulgaria .
