Elifelet (Hebrew: אליפלט) is a moshav in the Upper Galilee near Rosh Pina in northern Israel. It belongs to the Mevo'ot HaHermon Regional Council. About 110 families live there and work in agriculture.
The moshav was founded in 1949 by immigrants to Israel from Yemen by the Moshavim Movement but was abandoned after several years and resettled during the 1950s by immigrants from North Africa and Iraq.
The name "Elifelet" is borrowed from several minor characters in the Hebrew Bible who were also named Elifelet.
