Loutraki (Greek: Λουτράκι, before 1922: Κάτω Πόζαρ – Kato Pozar,[2] renamed until 1959: Κάτω Λουτράκιον – Kato Loutrakion)[3] is a village in Pella regional unit, Macedonia, Greece.

Loutraki had 1066 inhabitants in 1981.[4] In fieldwork done by anthropologist Riki Van Boeschoten in late 1993, Loutraki was populated by Slavophones.[4] The Macedonian language was used by people of all ages, both in public and private settings, and as the main language for interpersonal relationships.[4] Some elderly villagers had little knowledge of Greek.[4]
