Jogyesan, or Mount Jogye, is a mountain of South Jeolla Province in southwestern South Korea. It has an elevation of 887 meters (2,910 ft). It is the main attraction of Mount Jogye Provincial Park (조계산도립공원).

It takes its name from the namesake Jogye Order which founded a key monastery, Songgwangsa (송광사/松廣寺), therein.

Beside the Songgwangsa, Jogyesan is also home to Seonamsa, an important monastery of the Taego Order (태고종/太古宗), a splinter group of the Jogye.
