Peter Peak (Bulgarian: Петров връх, romanized: Petrov vrah, IPA: [pɛˈtrɔv ˈvrɤx]) is an 850 m knob in Delchev Ridge, Tangra Mountains, eastern Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The peak surmounts Iskar Glacier to the west, Bruix Cove to the northwest and Sopot Ice Piedmont to the north and east.

The peak is named after Czar Peter II (IV) of Bulgaria, 1185 - 1197 AD, who together with his brother Czar Asen I restored Bulgaria's independence to establish the Second Bulgarian Kingdom.[1]
