The Salasch Nunatak (English; Bulgarian нунатак Салаш nunatak Salasch ) is a 220 m high nunatak on Greenwich Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . In Breznik Heights, it rises 0.4 km southwest of the highest point of Oborishte Ridge and 1.35 km west of Nevlya Peak from the ice masses of the Wulfila Glacier .
Bulgarian scientists mapped it in the course of surveying the Tangra Mountains on the neighboring Livingston Island between 2004 and 2005. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2009 for the village of Salasch in northwestern Bulgaria .
