The Covered Wagon (1923) is a American silent Western feature film released by Paramount Pictures. The film was directed by James Cruze based on a novel by Emerson Hough about a group of pioneers traveling through the old West from Kansas to Oregon. J. Warren Kerrigan starred as Will Banion and Lois Wilson as Molly Wingate.

The film premiered in New York City on 16 March 1923 and ran 98 minutes. Some sources say that all or part of this film had a music track recorded in the short-lived DeForest Phonofilm sound-on-film process, but if so, was only shown this way at the premiere at the Rivoli Theater in NYC.
