Dixon Peak, previously known as Mount Dixon, is the 23rd highest peak in New Zealand, rising to a height of 3,004 metres (9,856 ft).

It is located in the Southern Alps of the South Island in the Mackenzie District, within Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park, and only a short distance from its more illustrious neighbour Aoraki / Mount Cook.

The mountain is a popular peak for climbers, and is used as a practice run for ascents of Cook.

[4][5][6] The mountain should not be confused with Mount Dixon (Grey District), a lower peak of the same name close to the valley of the Taramakau River and near Harper Pass, 100 kilometres (62 mi) to the north east of Dixon Peak.
