The Purmerul Peak (English, Bulgarian връх Пурмерул wrach Purmerul ) is a 2000  m high and icy mountain on the Loubet coast of Graham lands north of the Antarctic Peninsula . In the western foothills of the Bruce Plateau, it rises 14.58 km north of Semela Ridge , 11.1 km east of Mount Lyttleton , 20 km south-southeast of Crookes Peak and 16.11 km northwest of Slessor Peak . Its south and west slopes are steep and partly free of ice. The Hamblin Glacier is southwest and the Hugi Glacier is north of it.

British scientists mapped it in 1976. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2014 after the Thracian god Purmerul .
