The Valley of Moutier or Grand Val is a valley in northern reach of Canton Berne in the Bernese Jura of Switzerland. It is located northeast of the Vallée de Tavannes between Canton Solothurn to the south and Canton Jura to the north.

The name Grand Val historically referred to a broad region centered on the town of Moutier, and that town is often referred to as "Moutier-Grandval" today. The valley is accessed from the south through the gorges de Court and includes the watchmaking towns of Moutier and Corcelles.
