Langhovde Glacier is a glacier about 8 nautical miles (15 km) long on the east side of the Langhovde Hills in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica, flowing north to Hovde Bay and terminating on the eastern shore of Lützow-Holm Bay. It was mapped from surveys and air photographs by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition of 1957-62 and named for its proximity to the Langhovde Hills.
