Fort Egbert, Military fort in Southeast Fairbanks Census Area, United States.

Fort Egbert is a former U.S. Army base beside Eagle Bluff, a rocky outcropping overlooking Eagle on the Yukon River near the Canada–US border. Five buildings of the original post have been preserved under the Bureau of Land Management. The site stands on a military reservation where the town of Eagle was established.

Fort Egbert was established in 1899 during the Klondike Gold Rush as the U.S. Army headquarters for the District of Alaska. President William McKinley named it after Colonel Harry C. Egbert, killed in Manila on March 26, 1899. The post was abandoned in 1911, though a Signal Corps contingent stayed until 1925, when the wireless station burned.

Fort Egbert was the first station of the Washington-Alaska Military Cable and Telegraph System; its first link, finished in October 1900, ran from Dawson City to the fort. In 1905 Roald Amundsen used the fort's telegraph station to announce his crossing of the Northwest Passage. A Signal Corps contingent stayed until 1925, when the wireless station burned.

Fort Egbert lies beside Eagle Bluff in Eagle, reached by the Taylor Highway and the road network serving the village. Five original buildings remain under Bureau of Land Management jurisdiction, so allow time to walk between them. Summer is the practical season; winter access to this border community is limited.
