The Peer Gynt Road (Norway: Peer Gynt Vegen) is a 60-kilometre-long tourist mountain road, named for the folkloric character Peer Gynt. It is a toll road. It runs in the east of Norway in Oppland county with views of Jotunheimen, along the villages Skeikampen, Fagerhøy, Gålå, Fefor and Dalseter.

The road is only open in the summer, mostly from the 1st of June, and is closed when the snow starts.
