Stancheva Peak (Bulgarian: връх Станчева, romanized: vrah Stancheva, IPA: [ˈvrɤx ˈstant͡ʃɛvɐ]) is an ice-covered peak that forms the west extremity of Bigla Ridge on Foyn Coast, Antarctic Peninsula. It rises to 1644 m[1] and has precipitous rocky northwest, southeast and southwest slopes. It surmounts Sleipnir Glacier to the north and Beaglehole Glacier to the south.
The feature is named after Kameliya Stancheva, participant in the 1996/97 Bulgarian Antarctic campaign, for her support for the Bulgarian Antarctic programme.
