Naiset Point is a 2,755-metre (9,039-foot) mountain summit located in Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park, in the Canadian Rockies of British Columbia, Canada. The mountain is situated 1.0 km (0.62 mi) southeast of Lake Magog, and at the end of the ridge extending north from Terrapin Mountain. Naiset Point is composed of sedimentary rock laid down during the Cambrian period. Formed in shallow seas, this sedimentary rock was pushed east and over the top of younger rock during the Laramide orogeny.
