Blåfjella-Skjækerfjella National Park lies in the county of Nord-Trøndelag in Norway. The terrain is characterized mostly by mountain plains, lakes, marshes, and a few mountain peaks. There are a few mountain cabins available for overnight stays, though no cross-country tracks are maintained during the winter.

The park is known as the place where spruce was first introduced (migrated) to Norway.

Gressåmoen National Park, which was created in 1970 and had an area of 182 km², was incorporated into Blåfjella-Skjækerfjella national park in 2004.
