Penyagalera (Catalan pronunciation: [ˌpɛɲəɣəˈlɛɾə]) is a rocky mountain in the northern side of the Ports de Tortosa-Beseit, Aragon, Spain. Punta de Penyagalera, the highest summit, has an altitude of 1,034.4 metres above sea level.

Penyagalera, the name of the mountain (penya "rock" and galera "galley" in Catalan) derives from the fact that it looks like a ship keel upwards from certain angles.
