The Col de la Baraque des Bouviers is a Margeride pass rising to 1420 m above sea level and located in the northern French department of Lozère, in Occitanie.

On the edge of the Croix de Bor national forest, the pass is on the D5 departmental road between Laval-Atger and Javols.

Due to its altitude, snowfall is frequent and snowdrifts are common.

The mountain was the setting for maquis camps during the Second World War.
