The Codés Range is a group of mountains in western Navarre, Spain. It is part of the larger Basque Mountains. In the Basque language, it is called Kodesko mendilerroa, and in Spanish, it is Sierra de Codés.

The highest point in the Codés Range is a peak called Ioar. It stands 1,418 meters (about 4,652 feet) tall. Ioar is located between the towns of Santa Cruz de Campezo and Aguilar de Codés. The Codés Range is the most western mountain range in Navarre. It sits right on the border with the Álava Province.

A special place called the Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Codés is found in these mountains. It is located near the town of Torralba del Río.

In winter, the mountains in the Codés Range often get covered in snow. This is similar to the nearby Andia and Urbasa ranges, which are further north.
