Highland of Aldan, Mountain system in Sakha Republic, Russia.

The Aldan Highlands extend across 600 kilometers in length and 300 kilometers in width within the South Siberian Mountains region.

Government expeditions led by geologist Yuri Bilibin and mining engineer Evgeny Bobin first explored and documented the highlands during the 1930s.

The mountainous region contains the Olyokma Nature Reserve, which protects local wildlife and natural resources in the northwestern section.

Mount Ningam reaches an elevation of 2,306 meters, making it the highest point for mountain climbing activities in the Aldan Highlands.

The geological structure includes Precambrian rocks such as gneiss, slate, granulite, and amphibolite, revealing formations from Earth's early periods.
