List of mountain peaks of Mexico



This article comprises three sortable tables of major mountain peaks of Mexico.

The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:
 * 1) The topographic elevation of a summit measures the height on the summit above a geodetic sea level. The first table below ranks the 40 highest major summits of México by elevation.
 * 2) The topographic prominence of a summit is a measure of how high the summit rises above its surroundings. The second table below ranks the 40 most prominent summits of México.
 * 3) The topographic isolation (or radius of dominance) of a summit measures how far the summit lies from its nearest point of equal elevation. The third table below ranks the 40 most isolated major summits of México.

Highest major summits
Of the 40 highest major summits of Mexico, three peaks exceed 5000 m elevation, ten peaks exceed 4000 m, and 38 peaks exceed 3000 m elevation.

Of these 40 peaks, five are located in Jalisco, five in Coahuila, four in Oaxaca, six in Puebla, four in the state of Mexico, three in Chiapas, two in Nuevo León, two in Veracruz, two in Michoacán, two in Querétaro, two in Durango, two in Chihuahua, two in San Luis Potosí, and one each in Morelos, Tlaxcala, Mexico City, Colima, Guerrero, Guanajuato, Zacatecas, Baja California, Aguascalientes, Sinaloa, and Sonora. Volcán Tacaná lies on the international border between Chiapas and Guatemala, and nine other peaks lie on a state border.

Most prominent summits
Of the 40 most prominent summits of México, only Pico de Orizaba exceeds 4000 m of topographic prominence, Popocatépetl exceeds 3000 m, five peaks exceed 2000 m, and 26 peaks are ultra-prominent summits with at least 1500 m of topographic prominence.

Of these 40 peaks, five are located in Oaxaca, five in Baja California, four in Puebla, four in Jalisco, four in Nuevo León, four in Coahuila, three in Veracruz, three in México, three in Baja California Sur, two in Michoacán, two in Querétaro, and one each in Morelos, Guerrero, Tlaxcala, Guanajuato, Durango, Chiapas, and Distrito Federal. Five peaks lie on a state border.

Most isolated major summits
Of the 40 most isolated major summits of México, only Pico de Orizaba exceeds 2000 km of topographic isolation. Four peaks exceed 500 km, 14 peaks exceed 200 km, and 33 peaks exceed 100 km of topographic isolation.

Of these 40 peaks, five are located in Coahuila, four in Baja California, four in Oaxaca, three in Puebla, three in Jalisco, three in Baja California Sur, two in Veracruz, two in Nuevo León, two in Chihuahua, two in Chiapas, two in México, two in Michoacán, two in Querétaro, and one each in Colima, Durango, Guerrero, Sonora, Morelos, Guanajuato, San Luis Potosí, Zacatecas, Tlaxcala, and Nayarit. Six peaks lie on a state border.
