Beaver Valley is a 16-mile (26 km) long[1] small valley located in eastern Beaver County, Utah, United States. The valley is nestled between three mountain ranges, with the Mineral Mountains at its western border, but also an outlying peak section on the mountain range northeast, forming the northern border of the valley.

Beaver Valley is the location of the county seat of Beaver, and from the mountains numerous creeks, streams, and the Beaver River converge. In the valley's southwest, Minersville Reservoir is the downstream region of the valley. From the west end of the reservoir, the Beaver River goes west past Minersville into the northeast of the Escalante Desert, and towards Sevier Lake (north).
