Rudno Landscape Park (Rudniański Park Krajobrazowy) is a protected area (Landscape Park) in southern Poland. The area of the park is 58.139 km², while its buffer zone is 67.13 km². Established in 1981.

The Park lies within Lesser Poland Voivodeship. It takes its name from the village of Rudno.

There are two nature reserves in the park:

The park is part of the Jurassic Landscape Parks Complex.
