Kukri Hills (77°44′S 162°42′E / 77.733°S 162.700°E / -77.733; 162.700) is a prominent east-west trending range, about 25 nautical miles (46 km) long and over 2,000 metres (6,600 ft) high, forming the divide between Ferrar Glacier on the south and Taylor Glacier and Taylor Valley on the north, in Victoria Land, Antarctica.^[1] They are south of the Asgard Range, east of the Quartermain Mountains and north of the Royal Society Range.

The hills were discovered by the Discovery Expedition (1901–04) and probably so named because its shape resembles that of the Kukri, a Gurkha knife.^[1]
