North Urals, Mountain range in northern Russia.

The North Urals stretch across 2,500 kilometers from the Ural River bend to Pay-Khoy Ridge, marking a boundary between European Russia and Siberia.

The North Urals formed during the Hercynian orogeny 250 million years ago, followed by extensive erosion and subsequent Alpine geological processes.

The North Urals region maintains traditions of the Mari, Komi, and Bashkir peoples, who developed specific practices adapted to the mountain environment.

Winter temperatures in the North Urals drop below -30°C, requiring specialized equipment and careful planning for any mountain expeditions or activities.

The eastern slopes of the North Urals contain Lake Bolshoye Shchuchye, measuring 136 meters in depth, with waters containing specific mineral properties.
