Miers Valley is a valley just south of Marshall Valley and west of Koettlitz Glacier, on the coast of Victoria Land, Antarctica.
The valley is ice-free except for Miers Glacier in its upper (western) part and Lake Miers near its center.
It was mapped and named by Robert Falcon Scott's British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13.
The name is possibly after Edward J. Miers, a marine biologist from the British Museum who examined crustacea from the Erebus and Terror expeditions.
