Kolyma Mountains

The Kolyma Mountains extend 1,300 kilometers along the Sea of Okhotsk, featuring granite peaks reaching elevations between 1,500 and 1,800 meters.

During the Soviet period, the Kolyma region developed into a major mining center, particularly known for its gold and precious metal extraction operations.

Indigenous Evenk communities have maintained their traditional ways of life in the Kolyma Mountains region, adapting to the extreme northern conditions.

Visitors to the Kolyma Mountains require specialized winter equipment and local guides due to the severe climate and limited infrastructure in the region.

Mount Nevskaya stands as the highest point in the Kolyma Mountains system, reaching an elevation of 1,828 meters above sea level.
