The Stewart Heights are up to 2760 m highly preferred group of small and partly snow-covered hill in East Antarctic Victoria Land . In the Southern Cross Mountains they loom just south of the Arrowhead Range between the upper branches of the Cosmonaut Glacier .
The southern group of a 1966-1967 campaign as part of the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition named them after field research assistant Ian Stewart, who was involved in that campaign.
