Hyrcania (/hərˈkniə/) (bahasa Yunani: Ὑρκανία Hyrkania,[1] bahasa Persia Kuno: Varkâna,[2] bahasa Persia Abad Pertengahan: Gurgān, Akkadian: Urqananu)[2] adalah sebuah daerah bersejarah yang terdiri dari daratan tenggara [Laut Kaspia] di Iran saat ini, di selatan dikelilingi oleh Pegunungan Alborz dan Kopet Dag di timur.[3]

The region served as a satrapy (province) of the Median Empire, a sub-province of the Achaemenid Empire, and a province within its successors, the Seleucid, Arsacid and Sasanian empires. Hyrcania bordered Parthia to the east (later known as Abarshahr), Dihistan to the north, Media to the south and Mardia to the west. After the fall of the Sasanian Empire in 651 AD, Hyrcania was known as Tabaristan.
