De Alde Feanen National Park is a national park in the Dutch province of Friesland. The Alde Feanen form a diverse wetland with lakes, fens, quaking meadows, swamp forests, and peatlands.

The national park is located in the center of the province of Friesland and, with an area of approximately 4,000 hectares, represents the largest contiguous natural area in the mainland part of the province. The municipalities of Leeuwarden, Smallingerland, and Tytsjerksteradiel share the park's territory. The small town of Earnewâld, located approximately 12 kilometers southeast of Leeuwarden, is located in the east of the national park and is completely enclosed by it.

At the center of the national park lies the so-called Princenhof, an area consisting of several small lakes, bays, and islands. The Alde Feanen are part of a wide band of peat areas that stretches from Dokkum to Stavoren across the province of Friesland and is known in the Netherlands as “Frieslands Lage Midden”.
