Novosilski Glacier is a glacier of South Georgia. It is eight miles long and two miles wide, rising between Mount Paterson and Mount Carse and flowing in a west-north-westerly direction from the south-west slopes of the Salvesen Range to Novosilski Bay on the south coast of the island.

The feature was first surveyed and named by a German expedition 1928-29, under Kohl-Larsen. The name derives from nearby Novosilski Bay.[1]
