The Amazing Race 22 is the twenty-second installment of the reality television show The Amazing Race. It featured eleven teams of two, each with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world.

The season premiered on February 17, 2013, at 8:00 p.m. EST/PST on CBS in the United States and the CTV Television Network (CTV) in Canada, with the two-hour season finale broadcast on May 5, 2013.

Professional hockey players and brothers Jonathan "Bates" and Anthony Battaglia were the winners of The Amazing Race 22.

This season was broadcast in the mid-season of the 2012–13 TV schedule. In an interview with TV Guide, Keoghan revealed that the Double Your Money prize introduced in the previous season would not be included in Season 22. Instead, the twist this season was that the winners of the first Leg were awarded two Express Passes: one for themselves and another that had to be given to another team before the end of Leg 4.

The season spanned 30,000 miles (48,000 km) through ten countries in five different continents. This season featured the Race's first ever visit to the overseas country of French Polynesia, where teams skydived above the island of Bora Bora. Other tasks and travel destinations included: "Shemozzle racing" in New Zealand, hunting scorpions with bushmen in Botswana, and climbing the north face of the Eiger in Switzerland. This season also featured the first Race visit to the constituent country of Northern Ireland.
