Molar Peak is a mountain of 3,500 feet in the Osterrieth Range of Anvers Island, in the Palmer Archipelago within the British Antarctic Territory. It is in the south-west of the range.
This hill was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from Arthur Harbour in November 1955, and in this month the first ascent of the mountain was made. It is named 'Molar' from its tooth-like shape. Similar is the nearby 'Fang Buttress'.
