Bondalen is a valley in the Hjørundfjord area of Ørsta Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The 11-kilometre (6.8 mi) long, sparsely populated valley runs to the west from the Hjørundfjorden and the village of Sæbø towards the village of Volda in the west.[1]

Bondalen is located in the midst of the Sunnmørsalpene mountains, with the mountain Skårasalen just to the south. The Hjørundfjord Church, a primary and secondary school, and a number of other community services for the area are all located in the valley.
