The Instekleppane Hills are a group of low rock hills that protrude above the ice slopes at the east side of Shirase Glacier, just south of the southeastern extremity of Lützow-Holm Bay in Antarctica. The hills were mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named "instekleppane" ("the innermost lumps") after their appearance. Azarashi Rock is located approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) north.
