Vicha Glacier ({{lang-bg|ледник Вича}}, ‘Lednik Vicha’ \\'led-nik 'vi-cha\\) is the 27 km long and 6 km wide glacier in Gromshin Heights on the east side of northern Sentinel Range in Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. It is situated northeast of Newcomer Glacier and southwest of Yamen Glacier. The glacier drains southwards along the east slopes of Mount Ulmer and Mount Ojakangas, then turns southeast at Mount Washburn, flows east of Mount Cornwell and Mount Warren, and southwest of Branishte Peak, and together with Newcomer Glacier joins Rutford Ice Stream south of Foros Spur.[1]

The glacier is named after the ancient and medieval fortress of Vicha in Northeastern Bulgaria.
