The Ural Mountains are a prominent geographical feature in Russia, extending around 2,500 km from the Arctic Ocean to the Ural River. This range has several synonyms used to describe it, such as the "Urals," "Ural Range," "Uralsky Mountains," and "Ural Mountains System." In Russian, it is known as "Уральские горы" (Uralskiye gory). The Ural Mountains represent a significant cultural and ecological divide in Russia, with the western slopes draining into the Baltic and Black Sea basins and the eastern slopes into the Siberian River system. These mountains serve as a popular destination for tourists and mountaineers.
