How to read this map

The highest point of the Ural Mountains is Mount Narodnaya, 1,894 m (6,214 ft) above sea level. The range is about 2,500 km (1,550 mi) long.

The dashed outline marks the Ural Mountains as mapped by Natural Earth. Towns and cities on the map include Yekaterinburg, Samara, Omsk, Kazan, Chelyabinsk, Ufa, Perm and Tolyatti. Labeled countries: Russia and Kazakhstan.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the outline of the Ural Mountains come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the outline is a guide to where the Ural Mountains are, not a surveyed boundary.
