Nikola Peak (Bulgarian: връх Никола, romanized: vrah Nikola, IPA: [ˈvrɤx niˈkɔɫɐ]) is the sharp, partly ice-free peak in Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica rising to 2405 m[1] in the side ridge that trends 9.15 km from Mount Dalrymple on the main crest of northern Sentinel Range east-northeastwards to Robinson Pass. It surmounts Sabazios Glacier to the north.

The peak is named after the Bulgarian rebel leader Kapitan Dyado Nikola (Nikola Filipovski, 1800–1856).
