A valley is a low-lying area of land between two higher areas, often created by erosion from rivers or glaciers. It typically has a U-shaped or V-shaped profile. A spur, on the other hand, is a ridge of land that projects outward from the main mountain or hill mass. It is often created by erosion and can have a more linear or finger-like shape.

Valleys are typically wider and deeper than spurs, and are formed by erosion from water or glaciers, while spurs are formed by the intersection of two valleys.
