Penck Ledge (73°3′S 4°18′W) is a mainly ice-covered ledge at the west side of the head of Penck Trough in Queen Maud Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from surveys and air photos by the Norwegian-British-Swedish Antarctic Expedition (NBSAE) (1949–1952), led by John Schjelderup Giæver, and additional air photos (1958–59), and named in association with Penck Trough.
