Eidsdal is a village and valley in Fjord Municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. It is located along the south side of the Norddalsfjorden, about 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) southwest of the village of Sylte and about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) west of the village of Norddal.

The valley stretches from the Norddalsfjorden up to the lake Eidsvatnet in the direction of Geiranger.
