Kabanka, Protected mountain in Stavropol Krai, Russia.

Kabanka (also Tupaya) is a 767 m residual magmatic mountain in the Pyatigorye area, 1.5 km southwest of Zheleznovodsk and 400 m from Mount Ostraya. It forms a 150 by 350 m rocky ridge of beshtaunite, elongated northeast, resembling a lying boar. Its flat summit and steep western, northern and eastern slopes are cut by fissures, while the southern slope is gentle.

Kabanka holds traces of ancient settlements from the 3rd to 4th centuries BCE on its slopes. It was designated a regional geological natural monument by a decision of the Stavropol Krai committee and executive council on 15 September 1961, under measure No. 676 on nature protection in the krai.

The name Kabanka comes from the mountain's profile, which from the side resembles a lying boar (kaban in Russian); its other name, Tupaya ("blunt"), refers to the flat summit. The slopes are covered by broad-leaved forest belonging to the Beshtaugorsky forest massif.

Plan visits during spring or autumn when weather conditions are milder and trail conditions are at their best. Parking areas are available near the base of the mountain close to Zheleznovodsk town.

The mountain's name comes from its silhouette: seen from the side, the 150 by 350 metre rock ridge resembles a lying boar (kaban). Its flat summit gave it the second name Tupaya, meaning blunt. The slopes are covered by broad-leaved forest of the Beshtaugorsky massif.
