Chapel-en-le-Frith () is a town and civil parish, in the Borough of High Peak, Derbyshire, England.

It has been dubbed the "Capital of the Peak", in reference to the Peak District, historically the highland areas between the Saxon lands (south of the River Trent) and the Viking lands (which came as far south as Dore, South Yorkshire).
