The Slatija Glacier ( Bulgarian ледник Златия Lednik Slatija ) is a 6.7 km long and 3 km wide glacier on Brabant Island in the Palmer Archipelago west of the Antarctic Peninsula . It flows north of the Rush Glacier and west of the upper section of the Hippocrates Glacier from Aluzore Gap in a west-southwest direction between Mount Sarnegor and the Veles Bastion to Dallmann Bay , which it reaches north of the Sidell Spur and south of Fleming Point .
British scientists mapped it in 1980 and 2008. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2015 after localities in north-west and east Bulgaria .
