Yuraktau, Mountain summit in Ishimbaysky District, Russia

Yuraktau rises 338 meters above sea level with a conical shape and slopes between 20 to 30 degrees across its 1-kilometer length.

The mountain formed over 230 million years ago as a reef structure in a tropical sea during the Lower Permian period of the Late Paleozoic era.

The name Yuraktau originates from the Bashkir language, where 'Yüräk tau' translates to 'heart mountain' in reference to its distinctive shape.

Multiple springs emerge at the northern slope base of the mountain, with one containing sulfur compounds, while Lake Moksha sits at its foot.

The mountain stands 220 meters above the Belaya River with a lower section covered in natural scree formations extending across its surface.
