Ypecolsga (; also IJpecolsga) is a village in Súdwest-Fryslân in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 50 in January 2017.

==History== The village was first mentioned in 1245 as Ypekaldege. The etymology is unclear. Ypecolsga is a canal village which developed in the late middle ages along the river. Woudsend began as a satellite of Ypecolsga, however it quickly outgrew by its parent, and became the main settlement in the region.
