Subpolar Ural, Mountain range in northern Ural region, Russia.
The Subpolar Ural extends through 1,300 miles of Russian territory, reaching elevations up to 6,217 feet at Mount Narodnaya, the highest peak in the range.
The Ural Mountains became critical during 1941-1942 when numerous Soviet factories relocated to the eastern foothills, protecting industrial operations from German bombing campaigns.
Multiple indigenous groups maintain traditional practices in the Subpolar Ural region, incorporating hunting and fishing methods passed through generations in this northern environment.
Visitors access the mountain range through Syktyvkar city, requiring winter gear from October through April and specialized transportation due to limited infrastructure.
The mountain chain contains substantial mineral deposits, including iron ore, coal, gold, and precious stones, while serving as the natural border between Europe and Asia.
