Rose Valley Glacier (Bulgarian: ледник Розова долина, romanized: lednik Rozova dolina, IPA: [ˈlɛdnik ˈrɔzovɐ doliˈna]) is a glacier on Varna Peninsula, eastern Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It is northeast of Saedinenie Snowfield, northwest of Debelt Glacier and north of Panega Glacier. It extends 5.2 kilometres (3.2 mi) in the southeast–northwest direction and 3.7 kilometres (2.3 mi) in the southwest–northeast direction. The glacier drains the northeast slopes of Vidin Heights to flow into Lister Cove and McFarlane Strait between Pomorie Point and Inott Point.
The feature is named after the Valley of Roses in central Bulgaria.
The glacier is located at 62°30′30″S 60°06′07″W / 62.50833°S 60.10194°W (Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 and mapping in 2005 and 2009).
