Tula Mountains are large group of mountains in Enderby Land, Antarctica. They are located just east of Amundsen Bay.

The mountains were discovered on 14 January 1930 by the British Australian New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition. The leader of the expedition was Douglas Mawson. He first called them the "Tula Range." He named them after the ship Tula, which was used by explorer John Biscoe. Biscoe discovered Enderby Land in 1831.[1]
