Marchaevo Peak

Marchaevo Peak (Bulgarian: връх Мърчаево, ‘Vrah Marchaevo’ \'vr&h m&r-'cha-e-vo) is the sharp rocky peak rising to 1100 m in the northwest extremity of Zagreus Ridge on Oscar II Coast in Graham Land. It surmounts Hektoria Glacier to the northeast and a tributary to Paspal Glacier to the southwest. The feature is named after the settlement of Marchaevo in Western Bulgaria.
