Ilinden Peak (Vrah Ilinden \'vr&h 'i-lin-den\) is an ice-covered peak rising to 620 m in Breznik Heights on Greenwich Island, Antarctica. The peak has precipitous and partly ice-free south slopes, and surmounts Zheravna Glacier to the south, Solis Glacier to the northwest, and Fuerza AĆ©rea Glacier to the north-northeast.
The feature is "named after the settlement of Ilinden in Southwestern Bulgaria, in connection with the 1903 Bulgarian uprising of Ilinden-Preobrazhenie for the liberation of Macedonia and Odrin (Adrianople) Thrace".
