Walter de Moravia[a] (died c. 1263), Lord of Duffus, and Strathbrock, was a Scottish noble.

He was a younger son of Hugh de Moravia. His grandfather William had obtained a grant from King William I of Scotland, of the lands of Strathbrock in West Lothian, as well as Duffus in Moray, between 1165 and 1171.[1] Walter inherited these lands upon the death of his father.

Walter married Euphemia, daughter of Fearchar, Earl of Ross.[2] He was succeeded by his son Freskin.
