The Srem Gap (English, Bulgarian Сремска седловина Sremska sedlowina ) is a flattened, about 700 m high and 1.35 km long anticline to the north of Graham Lands on the Antarctic Peninsula . On the Trinity Peninsula, it lies between the Russell West Glacier in the northwest and a subsidiary glacier of the Russell East Glacier in the southeast. It connects Irakli Peak and Trakiya Heights in the southwest with Mount Canicula in the northeast.
German and British scientists mapped it together in 1996. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2010 after the town of Srem in southeastern Bulgaria .
