Vassfjellet is a mountain in Sør-Trøndelag in Norway. The mountain lies in the three municipalities Melhus, Klæbu and Trondheim.

The eastern side of the mountain hosts a ski resort, Vassfjellet Skisenter.

On the top there is a radio and TV signals transmitting tower, which extends 220 m above the top of the mountain. A road leading to the top has been built for maintenance access to the tower. This road starts in the village of Kvål, but is closed to public vehicle access. It is however an excellent route for hiking.
