Carlyon Glacier is a large glacier in Antarctica that flows east-southeast from the neve east of Mill Mountain to the Ross Ice Shelf at Cape Murray, on the Hillary Coast of the Ross Dependency. It was mapped in 1958 by the Darwin Glacier party during the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1956 to 1958, and the New Zealand Antarctic Place-Names Committee named it for R.A. Carlyon, a member of the mapping party alongside mountaineer Harry Ayres.
