Understanding geomorphological characteristics must provide morphographic, morphometric,morphogenetic, and morphochronological information. This study aims to identify geomorphological characteristics in the Prambanan hills area compiled in the form of a geomorphological map. The research is based on maps, previous research reports, and field observations in the form of field checks on theelements studied. The geomorphological mapping system used is the ITC system. The main analysis in this research is spatial analysis in the form of overlapping spatial data. The relationship between landform units,lithology, and slopes is information that is analyzed descriptively. The results showed that on a map with a scale of 1: 30,000, 9 geomorphological units could be identified. The 9 geomorphological units are a combination of morphometry, genetics, and lithology. The combination consists of 2 landforms, namelytraditional and structural hills, and slopes; The lithology consists of 3 layers, namely the Lapili Formation of Semilir, Sand Formation of Kebo Butak, and Tuff Formation of Semilir. While the morphometry is in theform of slope units, namely 8-15%, 15-25%, 25-45%, and >45%. While the age based on lithology is Late Oligocene – Early Miocene in the Kebo Butak Formation and Early Miocene – Middle Miocene in theSemilir Formation.
