Na'ale (Hebrew: נעלה, lit. 'Exalted') is an Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Located near Modi'in, it falls under the jurisdiction of Mateh Binyamin Regional Council. In 2024 it had a population of 2,932.

The international community considers Israeli settlements in the West Bank illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]

According to the ARIJ, the settlement was built on land confiscated from the Palestinian towns of Al-Ittihad (Jammala), Deir Qaddis and Shabtin.[3][4][5]
