Sisters Peak is a mountain in the north of Ascension Island, a peak of 1,460 feet which is the highest of a group of volcanic hills known as 'The Sisters'. Sisters Peak itself is a distinctive triangular mountain of volcanic material. Beside it is a hill with a crater known descriptively as 'Perfect Crater'.

The peak gives fine views all over the island, to Lava Field to the north down to English Bay, to Georgetown and Cross Hill to the west and the might of Green Mountain to the south, beyond Two Boats Village.
