Susaktau, Mountain summit in Bashkortostan, Russia

Susaktau is an outlier hill with a pointed summit in the Alsheyevsky District of Bashkortostan, near the village of Churaevo. It is a 116-hectare nature monument with no trees on its slopes, only grassy vegetation, and sandy steppes that host rare plants. The Dyoma River flows at its southwestern foot.

Susaktau is a residual outlier hill, a remnant left standing as the surrounding rock eroded away. It was designated a nature monument of Bashkortostan in 2005, with a protected area of 116 hectares. Its treeless, grass-covered slopes above the Dyoma River hold a complex of sandy steppes.

The name Susaktau is Bashkir for "hill-mountain". Villagers in nearby settlements sometimes call it Lysaya Gora (Bald Mountain) because no trees grow on its slopes, only grasses. Bloggers spread a story that it is called "Maiden's Breast" for its outline, but locals never used that name.

Susaktau lies in Alsheyevsky District beside Churaevo, about 5 km north of Kipchak-Askarovo, on the right bank of the Dyoma. The Raevka–Sterlitamak road passes nearby, and the slopes are treeless, so there is no shade; the summit view takes in the Dyoma plains and Mount Satyrtau.

Bloggers repeat a tale that the mountain is called "Maiden's Breast" for its outline, but villagers nearby never used that name; locals sometimes call it "Lysaya Gora" (Bald Mountain). The peak is treeless, covered only in grass, and from the top you see the Dyoma floodplain and the neighbouring Satyr-Tau. The mountain became a nature monument in 2005, covering 116 hectares.
