Gora Yurma, Mountain summit in Chelyabinsk Oblast, Russia

Gora Yurma is the highest point of the Yurma ridge in Taganay National Park, Kusa District, Chelyabinsk Oblast, reaching 1,003 meters. Its upper part is a broad plateau covered with dense small spruce, while birch forest with open glades grows at the foot. The ridge stretches 21 kilometers from north to south, and its eastern slope is strewn with stone rivers and outcrops such as the Devil's Gate, a rock arch at 985 meters.

Geologist Ivan Mushketov described the impassable forests and bear tracks in the Yurma area during his 19th-century surveys of the southern Urals. The mountain later became part of Taganay National Park, established in 1991, which brought the area under protection. The Devil's Gate rock at 985 meters is a geological monument of Chelyabinsk Oblast.

The name Yurma may derive from the Bashkir phrase meaning 'do not go', reflecting the mountain's difficult access; another explanation links it to the dialect word for dense forest, and a third to the Bashkir and Magyar tribe Yurmaty. The summit plateau is covered with dense small spruce, while birch woods with open glades grow at the foot.

The summit is most easily reached on foot from the town of Zlatoust, with trails passing through Taganay National Park on the way up. Weather on the top changes quickly, so starting early in the day gives you the best chance of clear conditions.

The most visited spot is the Devil's Gate, a gap at 985 m where two crags form a doorway; it is a geological nature monument of Chelyabinsk Oblast. Other named rock remnants on the plateau include the Devil's Settlement, the Southern Gates and the Fortress. The crags are heavily fissured and crumbled, so passing beneath them is risky.
