La Serralada Wasatch (en anglès Wasatch Range) és una serralada dels Estats Units que s'estén per uns 250 km des de l'estat de Utah a la frontera amb Idaho i pel centre d'Utah. Generalment es considera que és l'extrem oest de les muntanyes Rocoses, i l'extrem est de la Gran Conca.[1] A l'estat d'Idaho aquest serralada la continua les Muntanyes Bear River.

Wasatch significa en idioma Ute "pas de muntanya."[2]

Aquesta serralada era d'importància vital pels primers colonitzadors, ja que hi trobaven fusta, granit i aigua. Actualment el 85% de la població d'Utah viu a uns 25 km de la serralada.
