The Austkampane (Norwegian for east cliffs ) are a group of up to 2210 m high hills in the East Antarctic Queen Maud Land . They rise 8 km north of Menipa in the Sør Rondane Mountains .
Norwegian cartographers, who also gave this mountain group its name, mapped it in 1946 using aerial photographs taken during the Lars Christensen Expedition in 1936/37 , and in 1957 using the same from the US Operation Highjump (1946–1947).
