'''Neumayer Glacier''' is a glacier, 8 nautical miles long and 2 nautical miles wide, which flows east along the north flank of the [[Allardyce Range]] to the west side of the head of [[Cumberland West Bay]], [[South Georgia]]. It was charted by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Otto Nordenskiöld, 1901–04, and named for Georg von Neumayer.

Between 2005 and 2009, the glacier retreated half a mile.<ref>{{cite web|title=Neumayer Glacier, South Georgia Island|url=http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=44972|work=Image of the Day|publisher=NASA|accessdate=9 May 2011}}</ref>
