The Terminal Peak (loosely translated endpoint tip ) is a 1,920 m high, mostly hidden under ice mountain with a small peak in the Prince Albert Mountains in the East Antarctic Victoria Land .
Members of the southern group in the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1962–1963) named it so because it represented the western end point of their exploratory march.
