Peaked Hill, also known as Kai Yet Kok (Chinese: 雞翼角), is a stack island on the westernmost point on land of Hong Kong territories. The island is close to the west side of southwest Lantau Island, near Tsin Yue Wan (煎魚灣) and can be spotted from the 7th stage of Lantau Trail.

The island is north of Lantau Channel and affected by the current from the Pearl River. West of the island are the territories of mainland China.

The indigenous name Kai Yek Kok means Chicken Wing Point in Cantonese language.
