Katrin Garfoot (born 8 October 1981) is a German-born Australian former cyclist who won a bronze medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in the road time trial.

At the 2016 UCI Road World Championships she won the bronze medal in the women's time trial, 8 seconds behind the winner Amber Neben. In the 2017 road world championships, Garfoot became the second Australian after Anna Wilson to achieve two individual medals at the same road world championships, with a bronze in the individual time trial and a silver in the road race. She completed the three-peat in the 2018 national time trial championships, two and a half minutes clear of second place over the 29.5 km course.
After three and a half years signed with the Orica–AIS UCI women's team, Garfoot confirmed that she would not re-sign with the Orica in 2018, choosing to focus on family life in Australia while keeping her local Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast as a focus.
