The Elgi Plateau (Russian: Эльгинское плоскогорье; Yakut: Эльгэ хаптал хайалаах сир) is a plateau in the Sakha Republic, Far Eastern Federal District, Russian Federation.
The area is named after the Elgi River, a left tributary of the Indigirka. Formerly there was the Elginsky urban-type settlement by the left bank of river Elgi. It belonged to the Oymyakon District and was abolished in 2007.
