Ahlmann Glacier is the southernmost of two glaciers on the east side of the Hemimont Plateau, flowing east into Seligman Inlet on the Bowman Coast of Graham Land, Antarctica, reaching an elevation of 404 metres. It was photographed from the air in 1940 by the United States Antarctic Service and charted in 1947 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, which named it for the Swedish glaciologist Hans Wilhelmsson Ahlmann.
