The Albula Range is a mountain range in the Alps of eastern Switzerland. It is considered to be part of the Central Eastern Alps. It is named after the Albula River. The Albula Range is separated from the Oberhalbstein Range in the west by the Septimer Pass and the Julia River valley; from the Plessur Range in the north-west by the Landwasser river valley; from the Silvretta group in the north-east by the Flüela Pass; from the Bernina Range in the south-east by the Maloja Pass and the Inn River valley (upper Engadin).

The Albula Range is drained by the Albula, Julia, Landwasser and Inn rivers.
