Dålk Glacier is a glacier in Antarctica, about 15 kilometers long, draining into the southeast part of Prydz Bay between the Larsemann Hills and Steinnes. It was mapped by Norwegian cartographers from aerial photographs taken during the Lars Christensen Expedition of 1936 and 1937, and it was named by John H. Roscoe in a 1952 study of features identified from U.S. Navy Operation Highjump photographs, after the nearby Dålk Island at the glacier's terminus.
