The Barziya Peak (English, Bulgarian връх Бързия wrach Barsija ) is a 1500 m high and mostly icy mountain on the Loubet coast of Graham lands north of the Antarctic Peninsula . In the southern part of the Pernik Peninsula, it rises 15 km east-southeast of Álvarez Point , 15 km south of Mount Deeley and 8.2 km northeast of Zhelev Peak . Its steep south-west and north-west slopes are partially free of ice. The Field Glacier is north and west of it, the Naresne Glacier to the southwest.
British scientists mapped it in 1978. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2016 after the town of Barsija in northwestern Bulgaria .
