Jaktens Tid (English: hunting time) is a folk metal album by the Finnish band Finntroll. It was released in 2001 by Spinefarm.

The album itself is considered by many fans of the band as their best, featuring a mix of folk and black metal aspects, such as traditional joik singing.

There is a bonus song on the final outro track, "Försvinn Du som lyser": after approximately a minute of silence, a drunken-sounding polka-type song begins. It features acoustic guitars, keyboards, indiscernable yelled vocals, and a number of other unidentifiable instruments and sound effects.

  • The main melody for the song "VargTimmen" is modeled after "Konvulsionslåten," a folk song by Anders Norudde.
