  • Valleys: Definitions, Types, and Formation (Intermontane, River, Glacial)
    The low land between mountains and hills is called a valley.

    Here are some other terms related to valleys:

    * Intermontane valley: A valley located between mountains.

    * Interhill valley: A valley located between hills.

    * River valley: A valley formed by the erosion of a river.

    * Glacial valley: A valley formed by the erosion of a glacier.
