The hikers Valley is a valley in the center of Bird Iceland off the northwestern tip of South Georgia in the South Atlantic . It extends near the head end of Freshwater Inlet in a northeasterly direction for a distance of 800 m.
The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named it in 1977 after the wandering albatross ( Diomedea exulans ), whose breeding grounds include the area around the valley.
