Cossack is a suburb of the town of Katherine, Northern Territory, Australia. It is within the Katherine Town Council local government area. The area was officially defined as a suburb in April 2007, adopting the name from white émigré farmers who settled in the area.[2]

The locality consists mostly of rural land holdings mixed with some smaller farms and residences, however there is also a small industrial area and power station close to the Stuart Highway.
