Paryadin Ridge (54°2′S 38°0′W / 54.033°S 38.000°W / -54.033; -38.000) is a ridge extending from Cape Alexandra to Cape Paryadin at the west end of South Georgia. The name "Paryadin-Kamm," derived from nearby Cape Paryadin, was given by Ludwig Kohl-Larsen during his visit to South Georgia in 1928–29. An English form of the name has been approved.

Hesse Peak is the highest peak on Paryadin Ridge.[1]
