Skallen Hills (69°39′S 39°25′E) is an area of bare rock coastal hills which project into eastern Lutzow-Holm Bay between Skallevika and Skallen Glacier. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Skallen (the skull), a name presumably suggested by the outline of the feature on the Norwegian map.
