Reuning Glacier is a glacier on the north side of the Beethoven Peninsula in the southwest of Alexander Island, Antarctica, flowing northwest to join Hushen Glacier as they discharge into the south of Mendelssohn Inlet. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from US Navy aerial photographs of 1967-68 and Landsat imagery of 1972-73, and named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Winifred M. Reuning, editor of the Antarctic Journal of the United States from 1980 to 2015 for the National Science Foundation Office of Polar Programs.
