Sarolta Monspart (born 17 November 1944) is a Hungarian orienteering competitor. She was the first non-Scandinavian female runner who has won the World Orienteering Championships back in 1972.
She is considered to be the most successful orienteer in Hungary. During her active years she has won 14 national orienteering championships and 6 cross-country skiing championships. She was the first European woman to finish the marathon distance within 3 hours.
Her sport career was stopped because of a serious encephalitis inflammation caused by a tick. After recovering from the disease she persuades women to live a healthy life. Sarolta Monspart received a medal for lifetime merit from Ferenc Mádl, president of Hungary in 2003.
