Mittådalen also known as Mittådalens sameby (south-sami: Mïhte),[1][2] is a sami village in the north west part of Härjedalen, Sweden. It is located between Ljusnedal Härjedalens kommun and Storsjö in Bergs kommun. Mittådalen is one of Swedens 51 sami villages. A sami village is partly a geographical area, and partly an economic area for reindeer working sami people within the area.[3] Flatruet lies nearby.
Singer Jon Henrik Fjällgren lives in Mittådalen.
