Kjellströmdalen is a valley at Spitsbergen, Svalbard. It has a length of about 27 kilometers, and forms the border between Nordenskiöld Land, Heer Land and Sabine Land. The valley is named after topographer Carl Johan Otto Kjellström.[1]

The valley debouches into Braganzavågen,[1] a bay in the inner part of Van Mijenfjorden.[2]
