Langhovde Glacier (69°13′S 39°48′E / 69.217°S 39.800°E / -69.217; 39.800) is a glacier at the east side of the Langhovde Hills, flowing north to Hovde Bay on the east shore of Lützow-Holm Bay, Antarctica. It was mapped from surveys and air photos by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition, 1957–62, and named for its proximity to the Langhovde Hills.[1]
