Haffner Pass is a pass running north-east to south-west and rising to about 1,640 feet above sea level between Gilbert Glacier and Mozart Ice Piedmont in northern Alexander Island in the British Antarctic Territory.
The pass was surveyed by the British Antarctic Survey 1975–77, and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1980 after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Haffner Symphony (1782) in association with the name of the Mozart Ice Piedmont.
