The railroad bridge at Gellik is a four-part bridge over the Albert Canal in Gellik, in the Belgian municipality of Lanaken. The bridge is part of railroad line 20 Hasselt - Maastricht.
The bridge was built during the construction of the canal in the 1930s and, with a span of 112.75 meters, is the longest four-part bridge in Belgium.
