The Golan Regional Council (Hebrew: מועצה אזורית גולן‎‎, Arabic: مجلس الجولان الإقليمي‎‎) is a regional council that supervises regional services to Israeli settlements located on the Golan Heights. It is made up of 19 moshavim and 10 kibbutzim, and other villages. The council headquarters are in Katzrin.

The current Head of Council is Eli Malka.

The Golan Heights were captured by Israel from Syria in the Six-Day War of 1967. They are internationally recognized as Syrian territory occupied by Israel, although Israel asserts it has a right to retain the area.
