Ytterdalen ("The outer valley") is a valley in Nordenskiöld Land at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It has a length of about nine kilometers, and is located between the mountains of Flynibba, Grånutane, Ytterdalsegga, Ytterdalssåta, Skarkampen and Salen.[1] The river of Ytterdalselva from the glacier of Erdmannbreen flows through the valley, and further crosses Lågnesflya on its way to the bay of Van Muydenbukta.[2]
