The Biellese Prealps, or prealpi biellesi form an area of the Italian prealps situated to the south of the Pennine Alps. Sometimes they are regarded as a distinct Alpine group, at others as a subgroup of the Pennine Alps.
Administratively they fall within the Province of Biella, and the communes of the area are grouped together in the Comunità Montana Prealpi Biellesi.
