The Karkaraly Mountains are located in the eastern part of the Kazakh Uplands, 178 km southeast of Karaganda, 283 km northeast of Balkhash, 264 km southwest of Kurchatov, on the territory of the Karkaraly Nature Park, in the district of the same name in the east of Karaganda Oblast.

These mountains are a natural and historical heritage of Central Kazakhstan, one of the most picturesque and geologically interesting areas of the Kazakh Uplands. These mid-altitude granite ridges rise from the plains of Central Kazakhstan, forming a unique mountain forest oasis amidst the steppes. The Karkaraly Mountains on Google Maps. Photos by: Zekkadrb.
