Big Hatchet Peak is the high point of the Big Hatchet Mountains, a small but rugged range in the southwest corner of New Mexico, in the United States. The mountains are located in southeast Hidalgo County, about 50 miles southwest of Deming. The range runs roughly northwest-southeast, and is about 12 miles long; the southeastern edge of the range is within 3.5 miles of the border with Mexico. They lie primarily on BLM land.
The peak rises steeply out of the Playas Valley, to the west, and the Hachita Valley, to the east of the range. The summit stands about 4,000 feet above the valley floors. Also, the north and west faces of the peak are particularly steep, making for an impressive mountain. There are a few other minor summits in this small range, but most are not named, except for New Well Peak with a summit elevation of 6,284 feet and which anchors the southeast end of the mountains.
