The Sbelsurd Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Збелсурд lednik Sbelsurd ) is a 2.25 km long and 1.6 km wide glacier on Liège Island in the Palmer Archipelago off the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula . It flows southwest of the Sigmen and north-northeast of the Plejstor Glacier on the west side of the Brugmann Mountains from the north-western slopes of Pavlov Peak and the northern slopes of Mishev Peak in a north-westerly direction to Bolbabria Cove .
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2013 after the Thracian deity Sbelsurd .
