The Fyfe Hills are a group of low hills on the Crown Prince Olav Coast of the East Antarctic Enderbyland . They rise south of the Dingle Dome and immediately east of the Hydrographer Islands . Among them is the Gora Énderbitovaja hill .
Participants in one of the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions sighted the hills in October 1957. The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia named them in 1958 after Wallace Vernon Fyfe (1894–1982), Surveyor General (head of official surveying ) of Western Australia from 1938 to 1945.
