  Mount Tsotsorkov (Bulgarian: Цоцорков връх, romanized: Tsotsorkov vrah, IPA:) is the rocky, partly ice-covered mountain extending 7.6 km in north-south direction, 3 km wide and rising to 1615 m in the northwest foothills of Forbidden Plateau on Danco Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. It surmounts Bagshawe Glacier to the southwest, and Andvord Bay and its southernmost part Lester Cove to the north where the ridge ends in Forbes Point.
  
  The mountain is named after the Bulgarian industrialist Lachezar Tsotsorkov for his sustained support for the Bulgarian Antarctic programme.
