Pasvikdalen is a valley that straddles the border between Norway and Russia. Its Norwegian side lies within Sor-Varanger Municipality in Finnmark county, and its Russian side lies within the Pechengsky District of Murmansk Oblast. The valley holds large areas of pine forest, and more than 100 square kilometers of it fall inside Norway's Ovre Pasvik National Park, with the adjoining Ovre Pasvik Landscape Protection Area also located within the valley.
