Administratively it belongs partly to Amur Oblast, the Sakha Republic (Yakutia) and Khabarovsk Krai of the Russian Federation.

The range runs in a roughly east/west direction for about 200 kilometres (120 mi) at the northeastern end of Amur Oblast and the western limit of Khabarovsk Krai, bordering with Yakutia (Sakha) to the north.

On the northern side originate several rivers of the Uchur basin, such as the Algama, Mulam and Tyrkan, as well as the sources of Bolshoye Toko.

This lake, which gives its name to the range, is located at the feet of the northern slopes of the Toko-Stanovik in the Aldan Highlands.

[6] The slopes of the range are covered by taiga, mainly consisting of larch, with dwarf cedar above 1,300 metres (4,300 ft).
