The träskofiol or clog fiddle is a traditional musical instrument from northern Skåne province, Sweden, consisting of a violin neck and soundboard added to the body of a clog wooden shoe.[1]

The instrument is one of the limited number of traditional instruments upon which musicians can play in competition for the Zorn Prize to be awarded the title of riksspelman.
