Heito Glacier is a small glacier in the Langhovde Hills of Queen Maud Land, Antarctica, draining west along the south side of Mount Heito at about 69 degrees 16 minutes south, 39 degrees 48 minutes east. It was mapped by Japanese Antarctic researchers between 1957 and 1962 and named in 1973 by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition; its Japanese name means flat top glacier, after the shape of the nearby mountain.
