The Seven Troughs Range is a mountain range in western Pershing County, Nevada.

The name is derived from a series of seven stock watering troughs placed below a set springs.

Neighboring features include:

Along the southeast margin of the range above Sage Valley are several ghost towns dating from the early 1900s which served the gold mining activity in the canyons. From northeast to southwest are the sites of Ferrell, Mazuma, Tunnel Camp and Vernon.
