In peak bagging terminology in the United States, the Southern Sixers refers to the group of mountains in the southern states of North Carolina and Tennessee with heights of at least six thousand feet (1829 m). The southern sixers are the tallest group of mountains in the eastern United States and the only peaks in the Appalachian Mountains besides New Hampshire's Mount Washington to exceed 6,000 feet.

Most of these mountains are located in Great Smoky Mountains National Park (abbreviated GSMNP in the list), Mount Mitchell State Park (MMSP), along the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP), or in Cherokee or Pisgah National Forest. There are a few, though, that are located on private property. All of these mountains are located within {{convert|32|mi|km}} of the North Carolina - Tennessee border,[1] with 12 on the state border itself and many more on various county borders.

Those who complete a list of 40 of these peaks[2] are awarded membership in the South Beyond 6000 club.
