Norddal or Dalsbygda is a village in Norddal Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The village is located in a valley with steep mountains on each side, on the southern shore of the Norddalsfjorden. Norddal is about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) east of the village of Eidsdal and about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) across the fjord to the south of the municipal centre of Valldal.

Norddal is home to Norddal Church and some 150 permanent residents. The only access to the village by road is through nearby Eidsdal. The famous Geiranger area is connected to Norddal by hiking trails over the mountain pass to the south of the village.
