Mount Gniewek (79°20′S 158°55′E) is a conspicuous ice-covered flat-topped mountain, 2,060 metres (6,760 ft) high, standing at the north side of Carlyon Glacier, 6 nautical miles (11 km) southwest of Mount Keltie in Antarctica. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from tellurometer surveys and Navy air photos, 1959–63, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for John J. Gniewek, a geomagnetician at Little America V, 1958.
