The Halle Range or Halle Mountains ({{langx|da|Hallebjergene}}){{cite web|url=http://mapcarta.com/19192866|title=Hallebjergene|work=Mapcarta|accessdate=22 June 2016}} is a mountain range in Clavering Island, King Christian X Land, northeastern Greenland. Administratively this range is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park zone.
The range was named by Lauge Koch during his 1929–30 expedition after Thore Gustav Halle (1884–1964), a professor at the Stockholm University who had worked on the plant samples brought by the expedition. Formerly it had been also known as Joh. H. Andresenfjellet.{{cite web | title = Catalogue of place names in northern East Greenland | publisher = Geological Survey of Denmark | url = http://www.geus.dk/publications/bull/nr21/nr21_p117-368.pdf3 | accessdate = 18 June 2016}}
