Ahuzat Barak ( _he. אֲחֻזַּת בָּרָק, "lit." Barak Estate) is a communal settlement in northern Israel. Located to the east of Afula, it falls under the jurisdiction of Jezreel Valley Regional Council. In 2007 it had a population of 1,400.

The village was established in 1998 on private land, and was named after the biblical figure of Barak, who defeated the army of Jabin, king of Hazor, in the Jezreel Valley. It has absorbed several immigrants from South America.
