The Staurneset ( Norwegian for post tip ) is a rocky mountain ridge in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . In the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains , it extends from Jøkulkyrkja in a north-westerly direction.
Norwegian cartographers, who also named it, mapped it on the basis of measurements and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
