The 1952–53 Landsdelsserien was a Norwegian second-tier football league season.
The league was contested by 54 teams, divided into a total of seven groups from four districts; Østland/Søndre, Østland/Nordre, Sørland/Vestre and Møre/Trøndelag. The two group winners in the Østland districts, Moss and Geithus promoted directly to the 1953–54 Hovedserien. The other five group winners qualified for promotion play-offs to compete for two spots in the following season's top flight. Nordnes and Freidig won the play-offs and were promoted.
