The Vestre Skorvebreen (Norwegian for Western Slope Glacier ) is a wide glacier in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . In the Mühlig-Hofmann Mountains it flows west of the head end of the Austre Skorvebreen and south of the Breplogen mountain along the west side of the Svarthamaren mountain .
Norwegian cartographers made the designation and mapped it on the basis of surveys and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960).
