Area
Degraded hills
The Kooki Hills in Kooki County, Rakai District are part of the south-western
highlands, although not as conspicuous. Their summits range from smooth rounded
to flattish surfaces, with moderate to long steep flanking slopes, fluted by minor
valleys and short pediments on the lower ends. In some cases hills occur singularly,
while in other cases they occur as ridges (for example in Kibanda sub-county), with
slope lengths of about 0.5 to 1.0km. Kooki hills are underlain by Karagwe-Ankolean
