Andersson Peak is a mountain rising to about 5,250 feet to the north of Cape Fairweather on the Nordenskjöld Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory.
The peak was mapped by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from Hope Bay in 1947 and named after Karl Andreas Andersson (b. 1875), zoologist with the Swedish Antarctic Expedition, who explored this coast in 1902.
