Khibiny Mountains, Mountain range in Kola Peninsula, Russia
The Khibiny Mountains form an oval-shaped massif between Imandra and Umbozero lakes, reaching heights of 1,201 meters at Mount Yudychvumchorr.
These mountains, formed approximately 390 million years ago, contain ancient rocks with 477 documented minerals, including 108 first discovered in this region.
The mountain names derive from Sami language terminology, reflecting the deep connection between indigenous peoples and this Arctic landscape over generations.
The cities of Apatity and Kirovsk, located at the base of the mountains, serve as primary access points for hiking and skiing activities.
The Polar-Alpine Botanical Garden, established within the Arctic Circle, maintains 1,000 plant species despite the severe subarctic conditions.
