Negohot (Hebrew: נגוהות) is an Israeli settlement in the southern Hebron Hills of the West Bank. Located on a hill 700 m (2,300 ft) above sea level to the west of the Hebron area, it is organised as a community settlement and falls under the jurisdiction of Har Hevron Regional Council. In 2023 it had a population of 534.
The nearest Israeli locality is Shekef, a moshav a few kilometres over the Green Line in the Hevel Lakhish area of the Shephelah. The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.
