Star Peak is both the highest and most topographically prominent mountain in both the Humboldt Range and Pershing County in Nevada, United States. It is the sixth-most topographically prominent peak in Nevada.[3] The peak is on public land administered by the Bureau of Land Management and thus has no access restrictions.[4]
