The Cockscomb is a high mountain in the Eastern Cape, in South Africa. It gets its name from its resemblance to a fowl's comb. It is situated in the Baviaanskloof region and the nearest town is Patensie. The Cockscomb is part of the Groot Winterhoek range. Its peak is {{convert|1768|m|abbr=on}}[1] or {{convert|1752|m|abbr=on}}[2] above sea level, depending on the source.

The current record climb for the mountain (disputed) is 8 hours, 35 minutes, set by Braden van Breda and his team (including Andre O'Kennedy and Chris Arderne), on 24 August 2011.
