On the Trinity Peninsula, it rises 8.43 km south of Ami Boué Peak , 9.81 km east-southeast of Dabnik Peak , 6.15 km north of Kain Nunatak and 9.84 km west to south of Theodolite Hill from the southern foothills of the Laclavère plateau . The Broad Valley is south of him.
German and British scientists mapped it together in 1996. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2010 after a town in northwestern Bulgaria and after the Austro-Hungarian naturalist Felix Philipp Kanitz (1829–1904).
