Vålådalen Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Jämtland County, Sweden.

Valådalen is a nature reserve featuring mountain peaks, dense forests, alpine meadows, and glacial valleys in the southern Åre mountains. The terrain displays varied topography shaped by glacier erosion, offering diverse hiking environments within its boundaries.

The area was protected in 1988 and preserves landscapes shaped by the last Ice Age. Pyramidal hills throughout the reserve document the geological changes from that distant period.

Local communities practice traditional ways of life here, including reindeer herding and sustainable forestry passed down through generations. Visitors can observe these living traditions in how the land is used and managed.

The reserve has several summer and winter trails, and five of the Swedish Tourist Association's mountain cabins lie within its 1,175 km². The reserve was established in 1988 and forms part of the EU Natura 2000 network. Trails start from the Vålådalen area in the east of Åre Municipality, Jämtland County.

The four-day Vålådalsfyrkanten trek routes hikers through contrasting landscapes and includes the ascent of Saanta Mountain. This journey offers visitors a comprehensive experience of the region's different elevation zones and ecosystems.
