Nakas (mountain)
Nakas (; ) also known as Maly Nakas, is a mountain in the Southern Urals, Russian Federation. Its largest part is in Orenburg Oblast, with a small section in Bashkortostan. 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  high summit —the highest point of Orenburg Oblast— is only a slightly bulging plateau. Despite the lack of pronounced relief the Nakas forms an important drainage divide, separating the basins of the Belaya, Salmysh and Bolshoy Ik rivers. Flora
Nakas is a relatively woody area; its oak and linden forests stand out in the surrounding steppes of the region. The Nakas includes the Tugustemirov Forest, a protected area with a number of tree and rare plant species. See also
