The Scaife Mountains (75°06′S 065°08′W / 75.100°S 65.133°W / -75.100; -65.133 (Scaife Mountains)) is a group of mountains rising west of Prehn Peninsula and between the Ketchum Glacier and Ueda Glacier, at the base of the Antarctic Peninsula.

The Scaife Mountains are in Ellsworth Land. They are southwest of the Latady Mountains and east of the Sweeney Mountains. They are bounded by the Ketchum Glacier to the north, which flows into Gardner Inlet, and the Ueda Glacier to the south, which flows into Hansen Inlet. The inlets are both ice-bound and join the Ronne Ice Shelf on the shore of the Weddell Sea. Features include Mount Macnowski in the north and Mount Mount Brundage and Mount Terwileger in the south. Nearby features to the east include Prehn Peninsula, Lamboley Peak and Cape Schlossbach. Nearby features to the southeast include McCaw Ridge, Mount McKibben, Dodson Peninsula and Cape Cox.

The Scaife Mountains were discovered by the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) under Finn Ronne, 1947–48, who named these mountains for Alan M. Scaife of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, a contributor to the expedition.
