The Vorrkulten ( Norwegian for protruding hill ) is a mountain in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica . In the Kirwanveggen it rises immediately north of the Neumayer steep face at the northern end of the Vestvorren ridge .
Norwegian cartographers, who also named the mountain, mapped it on the basis of surveys and aerial photographs of the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (1949–1952) and aerial photographs of the Third Norwegian Antarctic Expedition (1956–1960) from 1958 to 1959 .
