Seebergsattel (Slovene: Jezerski vrh), or just Seeberg (Slovene: Jezersko) (el. 1218 m.) is a high mountain pass which connects the Austrian state of Carinthia with the Slovenian region of Upper Carniola.

The Seeberg Highway (B 82) heads from the Austrian side through the scenic village of Bad Eisenkappel (Slovene: "Železna Kapla") up to the border crossing on the pass. Directly behind the Slovenian border station on a bank is an inn. On the Slovenian side, the pass decends from the Seeberg down into Jezersko, from which there is a superb view of the Kamnik Alps.

The Seebergsattel is also known as the "Carinthian Seeberg" to differentiate it from the Styrian Seeberg elsewhere in Austria.
