The Nakawan Range (Malay: Banjaran Nakawan; Jawi: بنجارن نكاون) is a karstic hill range – part of the Tenasserim Hills – straddling northeast–southwest along the border between the Malaysian state of Perlis and the southern Thai province of Satun for approximately 36 kilometres (22.4 mi). Geologically, it is part of the Setul Group.

Part of the range is gazetted as Perlis State Park.
