Saharti Samre (Tigrinya: ሰሓርቲ ሳምረ) is one of the Districts of Ethiopia, or woredas, in the Tigray Region of Ethiopia. Part of the Debub Misraqawi (Southeastern) Zone, Samre is bordered on the south by the Amhara Region, on the west and north by the Mehakelegnaw (Central) Zone, on the northeast by Enderta, on the east by Hintalo Wajirat, and on the southeast by Debubawi (Southern) Zone. Towns in this woreda include Gijet and Samre.

Rivers in this woreda include the Samre, which is of historical importance as it was the traditional boundary between Tigray Province to the north, and Lasta or Wag to the south.^[1] Local points of interest in this woreda include the rock-hewn churches of Arbatu Insesa^[2] and Iyasus Hinta.^[3]
