Nakas (Russian: Накас; Bashkir: Наҡаҫ)[2] also known as Maly Nakas,[3] is a mountain in the Southern Urals, Russian Federation. Its largest part is in Orenburg Oblast, with a small section in Bashkortostan.[1][4]

Geography

The Nakas rises in northern Tyulgansky District, near the border with Bashkortostan. Rather than a mountain or ridge the Nakas is an elevated area, where its 667.6 m (2,190 ft) high summit —the highest point of Orenburg Oblast— is only a slightly bulging plateau.[5] Despite the lack of pronounced relief the Nakas forms an important drainage divide, separating the basins of the Belaya, Salmysh and Bolshoy Ik rivers.[3][6]

Flora

Nakas is a relatively woody area; its oak and linden forests stand out in the surrounding steppes of the region.[3] The Nakas includes the Tugustemirov Forest, a protected area with a number of tree and rare plant species.[7]
