Våvatnet is a lake in Orkland Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway.[1] The lake was dammed in 1910 and is used as the main reservoir for the municipality of Orkdal. The water flows into the lake Songsjøen and then into the lake Gagnåsvatnet.

The lake is about 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) south of the village of Krokstadøra, 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) southeast of the village of Ytre Snillfjord, and 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) west of the village of Gjølme.
