Ringrose Peak is a mountain in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada.

It is located on the Continental Divide on the border of Banff and Yoho National Parks and is part of the Bow Range of the Banff-Lake Louise Core Area in the Canadian Rockies.

The peak was named in 1894 after A.E.L. Ringrose by Samuel Allen. Allen met Ringrose, who was from London, England, while he was visiting the Rockies. [http://www.canadianmountainencyclopedia.com/MtnPg.asp?MtnId=1603 Ringrose Peak] in the "Canadian Mountain Encyclopedia"]
