Mount Cabot is a mountain located in Coos County, New Hampshire. The mountain is the highest peak of the Pilot Range of the White Mountains. Cabot is flanked to the northeast by The Bulge, and to the south of Bunnell Notch by Terrace Mountain.

Cabot is drained by various brooks on the west side into the Israel River and on the east into the West Branch of the Upper Ammonoosuc River, and thence into the Connecticut River and Long Island Sound.

Cabot is one of the Appalachian Mountain Club's "Four-thousand footers", the northernmost in New Hampshire. The valley of the Israel River separates the Pilot Range from the rest of the White Mountains; its isolation gives Mt. Cabot the fifth highest topographic prominence in New Hampshire, and the 14th highest in New England.
