Kleodora Peak is a 2,850 metres (9,350 ft) mountain summit located in the Athabasca River valley of Jasper National Park, in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada. It is situated at the head of Fryatt Creek Valley on the same high ridge as Mount Christie, Brussels Peak, Mount Lowell, Xerxes Peak, and Karpathos Peak (Mount Olympus). Its nearest higher peak is Parnassus Peak, 1.0 km (0.62 mi) to the north.[1] The mountain was named for Kleodora, who in Greek mythology lived on Mount Parnassus.[1] The name has not been officially adopted yet for this peak. An unnamed glacier lies below the eastern slope in the cirque between Kleodora Peak and Mount Belanger.
