L'Uttarakhand (en sanskrit : उत्तराखण्डराज्यम् et en hindi : उत्तराखण्ड, Uttarakhaṇḍ), ou Uttaranchal avant 2007, est un État indien situé dans le massif de l'Himalaya. Il est bordé par le Tibet (contrôlé par la Chine) au nord-est, le Népal au sud-est, et est voisin des États indiens de l'Himachal Pradesh et de l'Uttar Pradesh. Le Gange prend sa source dans l'État. C'est également dans le sud de l'Uttarakhand, à Haridwar, qu'il quitte l'Himalaya pour pénétrer dans la plaine du Gange. La capitale provisoire de l'Uttarakhand est Dehradun, qui est aussi la principale ville et un terminal ferroviaire, mais c'est le hameau de Gairshan situé au cœur de l'Himalaya qui a été désigné pour devenir la future capitale en raison de sa situation géographique centrale. La Haute Cour de l'Uttarakhand siège à Nainital. Le nom d'Uttarakhand, dérivé du sanskrit, signifie pays du Nord.
