The Reisadalen (or Reisadal or German  Reisatal ) is a valley in the municipality of Nordreisa in the north of Troms og Finnmark in Norway . The valley begins at the innermost part of the Reisafjord and leads in a south-easterly direction to the south-westerly part of Finnmarksvidda . The river Reisaelva ( German  Reisa ), after which the valley is named, runs in the valley.

In the lower part the valley is wide and open with large agricultural areas, areas covered with heather ( Norwegian lyngmoer ), large areas with birch and pine forests . From the village of Bilto to the Imofossen waterfall, the central part of the valley has the character of a narrow gorge with very steep ( Norwegian stupbrate ) slopes. From the east, the 269 m high Mollisfossen waterfall plunges down into the valley. The Reisa National Park is located in the middle and upper part of the Reisadalen .

The E6 crosses the lower part of the valley in the main town of Storslett . The N865 ( Norwegian Riksvei 865 ) follows the valley from Storslett up to Bilto.
