Belgian Antarctic Expedition
Belgica Mountains is an isolated chain of mountains about long, standing east-southeast of the Sor Rondane Mountains in Queen Maud Land, in the Antarctic. The chain was discovered by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition (1957-1958) under Gaston de Gerlache, and named after the ship "Belgica", commanded by his father, Lt. Adrien de Gerlache, leader of the Belgian Antarctic Expedition of 1897-99. The Prince de Ligne Mountains stand about north of the Belgica Mountains.
