Podgumer Col (Bulgarian: Подгумерска седловина, ‘Podgumerska Sedlovina’ \pod-gu-'mer-ska se-dlo-vi-'na\) is the mostly ice-free col of elevation over 800 m on Trinity Peninsula in Graham Land, Antarctica, which is linking Kondofrey Heights to the east to Detroit Plateau to the west. It is surmounting the upper course of Victory Glacier to the north, and a tributary to Znepole Ice Piedmont to the south.
The col is named after the settlement of Podgumer in Western Bulgaria.
