Utkikken (Norwegian for view ) is a mountain in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . It is the northernmost peak of the Ahlmannryggen and rises 8 km northeast of the Trollkjelpiggen . It offers a view of the Jutulstraumen and the offshore ice shelf belt on the Princess Martha Coast .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named the mountain, mapped it on the basis of aerial photographs and surveys of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs from the years 1958 to 1959 of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
