Paget Glacier is a glacier on South Georgia, four miles long and one mile wide, and which flows north-east from the north slopes of Mount Paget into the west side of Nordenskjöld Glacier.

The glacier was roughly surveyed in 1928–29 by a German expedition under Kohl-Larsen, and resurveyed in 1951–52 by the South Georgia Survey. The name, which is derived from nearby Mount Paget, was given by the South Georgia Survey in 1951–52.[1]
