Donjek Glacier is a glacier in Kluane National Park, Yukon, Canada, on the eastern side of the Saint Elias Mountains. It is about 35 miles (56 km) long and extends into the Donjek River valley, with its terminus at an elevation of about 3,500 feet (1,100 m). The glacier once dammed the valley to form Donjek Lake, estimated to have held about 230 million cubic meters of water.
