Petersburg Mountain is a mountain located in the Catskill Mountains of New York southeast of Cobleskill. Warnerville Hill is located northwest, and Donats Mountain is located northwest of Petersburg Mountain. In 1940, a 67-foot-6-inch-tall (20.57 m) steel fire lookout tower was built on the mountain. The tower was closed at the end of the 1971 season, and later transferred to Schoharie County for use as a radio tower. The tower site is closed to the public.
