河背水塘英文Ho Pui Reservoir)官名河背灌溉水塘英文Ho Pui Irrigation Reservoir),係香港灌溉水塘,喺新界八鄉河背南面山上,行政上歸元朗區。海拔250米羣山環抱水塘於其中。水注入錦田河,亦係錦田河上游,亦歸大欖郊野公園,自然環境優美。水塘容量50萬立方米水務署管水塘之中至細。水壩彎曲,東凹南,西凸北,長157米,高17米。由於灌溉之用,唔係供應食水,主要灌溉八鄉一帶農田。

1960年代,香港政府為咗增加大欖涌水塘供水量,截流錦田河,引水入大欖涌水塘,搞到錦田河中游以下水量大減,影響農民灌溉,所以當局另外起多四個灌溉水塘,以供八鄉農民耕田用水,河背水塘就係其中之一。水塘1961年起好使用。
