Siefker Ridge is a ridged, about 11 km long ridge in the West Antarctic Heritage Range with a height of up to about 1,500 meters. It extends from the western part of the Anderson Massif to the northwest.

Siefker Ridge got its name from a geologic research expedition of the University of Minnesota, who explored the area in the summer of 1963/64. They named the ridge to Dennis R. Siefker, an electrical engineer of the United States Navy, who was responsible for the automatic weather station at the base camp of the expedition at the Camp Hills.
