Col du Lautaret (2,058 m (6,752 ft)) is a high mountain pass in the department of Hautes-Alpes in France.

It marks the boundary between the valleys of the Romanche and the Guisane, a tributary of the Durance which has its source at the col.

The Col is open all year round and provides good views of La Meije to the south-west and the Grand Galibier to the north.
