Vališkių piliakalnis is a historical hillfort located in the village of Vališkiai, within the Balninkų seniūnija of the Molėtai region. The site is accessible via the Balninkai - Geliogaliai road, situated 2.2 km along the road in the north.
The site features a distinct oval clearing measuring 70x20 meters, oriented in a north-east to south-west direction and protruding from the center. On the southern slope, a portion of the hill not used for the fort sits 3 meters below the clearing. The slope descends to a height of 10 meters. The fort is decorated with antlers.
A geodesy marker is situated on the eastern edge of the clearing. Archaeological evidence includes a 40 cm thick cultural layer containing coal and burnt stones on a 0.04-hectare area at the southern foot of the hill. The site was surveyed by the Mokslinė metodinė taryba in 1978 and is dated to the beginning of the 1st millennium.
