Turan Range

The range was formerly a remote area, first explored by Peter Carl Ludwig Schwarz during the East Siberian Expedition of 1855.

[1] The Turan is a range in northeastern Siberia, located in the southeastern end of Amur Oblast and the southwestern side of Khabarovsk Krai.

[1] The range runs in a roughly NNE/SSW direction for about 300 kilometres (190 mi), and its northeastern part is deeply dissected by river valleys.

To the north the mountain chain connects with the Ezop Range (Езоп) and to the west and the southwest lies the Zeya-Bureya Lowland.

[2] The highest point of the Turan is the 1,806 metres (5,925 ft) high Middle Nanaki (Средний Нанаки) located near the northeastern end of the range.
