Bridge Riegel (76°43′S 161°0′E / 76.717°S 161.000°E / -76.717; 161.000Coordinates: 76°43′S 161°0′E / 76.717°S 161.000°E / -76.717; 161.000) is a flat-topped rock ridge on the north side of Greenville Valley, immediately above Greenville Hole, in the Convoy Range, Victoria Land. The feature provides a platform that overlooks the entire valley, similar to the bridge of a ship. It was so named by a 1989–90 New Zealand Antarctic Research Program field party.
