The Skibergfjellet is a 634.1  moh. (West Summit) high mountain in Norway .

The Skibergfjellet is a whole mountain range, with several peaks, and belongs to the municipality of Holmestrand . The summit, originally regarded as the main summit, has a height of 632 moh. In 1877 a granite column was placed there as a marker. There is also a transmission mast there. The Vestfjellet rises approximately 500 m southwest of the 632 moh high side summit. It originally counted as a mountain in its own right, but is now regarded as part of the Skibergfjellet massif and thus its highest peak. It was the highest point in the province of Vestfold , which in 2020 became part of Vestfold og Telemark . To the west of the mountain is Lake Øksne . The notch height of the Skibergfjellet is 473 m, the dominance over the next higher mountain, the Sirikjerke in the municipality of Kongsberg ( Buskerud ), is about 12.58 km. Other peaks of the massif are the south summit with 623.7 moh. as well as the Kirkefjell as the northernmost elevation of the massif with 608 moh.
