The Battle of Schuinshoogte, also known as Battle of Ingogo, is a battle fought north of Newcastle, KwaZulu-Natal, on February 8, 1881, during the First Boer War.

General Sir George Pomeroy Colley's communications with Newcastle are under constant harassment by mounted Boer patrols under Commander J D Weilbach after the Battle of Laing's Nek (another British defeat) and as a result the General makes it his plan to clear a clean unmolested path along the Newcastle-Mount Prospect road in order to better protect the British supply line, and receive fresh reinforcements he needs to bolster his ranks.
