Location of Liège Island in the Antarctic Peninsula region.

Pavlov Peak (64°3′S 61°58′W / 64.050°S 61.967°W / -64.050; -61.967) is a peak lying north of Mount Vesalius on Liege Island, in the Palmer Archipelago. It rises to 805 m[1] and surmounts Beripara Cove to the east, Pleystor Glacier to the southwest and Zbelsurd Glacier to the northwest.

History

The peak was shown on an Argentine government chart of 1954. It was named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1960 for Ivan P. Pavlov (1849–1936), Russian experimental physiologist noted for his work on conditioned reflexes.
