Momchil Peak (Bulgarian: Момчилов връх)[1] is an ice-covered peak rising to 625 m in Breznik Heights, Greenwich Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The peak is located north of Zheravna Glacier, 590 m east of Ilinden Peak, 1.7 km northeast of Razgrad Peak, 1.49 km northwest of the summit of Viskyar Ridge and 3.08 km north-northwest of Sartorius Point (Bulgarian topographic survey Tangra 2004/05 and mapping in 2005 and 2009).
The peak is named after the Bulgarian town of Momchilgrad in association with Momchil, a Bulgarian ruler of Aegean Thrace in the 14th century.[2]
