The Trigrad Gap (English; Bulgarian Триградска седловина Trigradska sedlowina ) is a 500 m high mountain pass on Livingston Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . In the Delchev Ridge of the Tangra Mountains, it lies between Spartacus Peak in the southwest and Yavorov Peak in the northeast. It is part of the watershed between the catchment areas of the Sopot Piedmont Glacier in the northwest and the Strandscha Glacier in the southeast.
The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named the passport in 2004 after the Bulgarian town of Trigrad .
