Øksfjordjøkelen or Ákšovuonjiehkki is the ninth largest glacier in mainland Norway. The glacier is located in Troms og Finnmark county. The 42-square-kilometre glacier lies in both Loppa and Kvænangen municipalities.
The highest point was earlier known to have an elevation of 1,204 metres . It is now 1,191 metres due to glacier shrinkage. But it still is, for the time being, the highest point in all of Troms og Finnmark county. The mountain Svartfjellet lies just north of the glacier in Loppa Municipality. That is another of the highest points in Finnmark county. The lowest point on the glacier has an elevation of 330 metres . The village of Alteidet in Kvænangen is located nearby, along the European route E6.
