Mount Zeppelin (64°27′S61°31′W) is an Antarctic mountain, 1,265 m, standing 3 miles (4.8km) southeast of Eckener Point on Pefaur (Ventimiglia) Peninsula, Danco Coast on the west coast of Graham Land. It surmounts Poduene Glacier to the north. Mount Zeppelin was charted by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, 1897–99. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1960 for Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin (1838-1917), German aeronautical engineer who perfected the large-scale rigid airship, 1894–1917.
