Definition
山峰 (shān fēng) refers specifically to a mountain peak — the pointed top of a single mountain. It is more concrete and literal than 高峰 (gāo fēng), which can also mean a figurative peak (e.g., career peak) or rush hour. 巅峰 (diān fēng) is more literary and often used figuratively for the highest point of something.
