Heilprin Glacier (Danish: Heilprin Gletscher), is a glacier in northwestern Greenland.[2] Administratively it belongs to the Avannaata municipality.

This glacier was named by Robert Peary after geologist, paleontologist and naturalist Angelo Heilprin (1853 – 1907), curator of the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences, who took part in the Peary expedition to Greenland of 1891–92.[3]
