Huopalahti railway station (Finnish: Huopalahden rautatieasema, Swedish: Hoplax järnvägsstation) is a railway station on the VR commuter rail network located in northern Helsinki, Finland. It is located about 6km (04miles) to the north/northwest of Helsinki Central railway station.

Huopalahti station is now situated in the district of Etelä-Haaga, but it was named for the municipality of Huopalahti, which was annexed to the city of Helsinki in 1946. The new Raide Jokeri-light rail will have a stop in the huopalahti station under the tracks. This will replace the bus line 550.
