Expeditie Robinson: Strijd der Titanen (also known as Expeditie Robinson: Battle of the Titans) is the first special season of the Dutch/Belgian reality television series Expeditie Robinson, and the seventh season overall. This season began airing on March 27, 2006 and concluded on May 29, 2006. All the castaways competed on previous seasons of Expeditie Robinson.

Ryan van Esch defeated Jennifer Smit in a jury vote of 4-2 to become the Sole Survivor.

Twists/Changes

• All-Stars: All the castaways competed on previous seasons of Expeditie Robinson.
• Day 1 Challenge: At the marooning, the castaways took part in a "plank" challenge without any tribe affiliations. The winner would become a tribe leader and would pick the person they got on with the least to become the second tribe leader.
• Schoolyard Pick/Day 4 Elimination: On Day 4, the tribe leaders each picked seven of the fifteen remaining castaways in a Schoolyard Pick. The castaway who wasn't picked would be eliminated immediately.
• Entatula: In "Episode 4", each tribe was asked to come to a consensus on naming one castaway on their tribe that they trusted the most. These two castaways would be sent to a secret island named Entatula. Later in the episode, they would pick three castaways to join them, and would pick three more in "Episode 5". Inhabitants of Entatula were immune from Tribal Council until the merge, and tribal Immunity Challenges took place as normal up until the merge. In "Episode 6", the members of Entatula formed the merged tribe, named Panga.
• Miniloc Tribe: After the "Episode 5" Tribal Council, the remaining castaways who were not selected to join Entatula formed the Miniloc tribe. From every episode onwards, the Miniloc tribe members would compete in a duel, with the loser of each duel being eliminated. The last person on Miniloc would rejoin the game at the final four. The losers of each duel would not become jury members.
• Semi-final Challenge: At the final four, the castaways competed in a challenge. The two losers would be eliminated, while the winners would form the Final Two.
