    Hills are too small to be considered adequate for valleys whilst mountains surrounded by valleys have more weight to them.

    So any land not the mountain is a valley? Valleys need to be surrounded by mountains and can be surrounded by hills. A river or lake in it makes it picturesque. This post was edited by O-uknow at October 20, 2017 9:01 AM MDT

    Valleys without mountains indicate earthquake country.
