Miar Peak (Urdu: میار چوٹی) is a 6,824-meter high mountain of the Karakoram range in Hispar Valley in the Nagar Valley and Bagrot Valley of Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan. It lies southeast of Diran peak (7,257 m) and northwest of Malubiting peak (7,428 m).

Miar Peak has remained unclimbed, partly because it is in a location that is difficult to access.[1]

A scientific-mountaineering expedition led by Dr. Franco Secchieri and assisted by Marino Lena failed to climb Miar Peak, because of the impossibility of ascending the Miar Glacier.[2]
