Mugalzhar (Kazakh: Мұғалжар), also known as Mugodzhar Hills or Mugodzhar Range (Russian: Мугоджары, Мугоджарский хребет),[1] is a series of mountain ranges 275 miles (440 km) long in the Aktobe Region of northwestern Kazakhstan.
The Mugalzhar proper are of length about 200 km with width up to 30 km. They start at the Or River (река Орь) as a narrow range that further splits in two: Eastern Mugalzhar and Western Mugalzhar. The highest place (657 metres) is in the Eastern Mugalzhar, Mount Boktybay [ru] (Boqtybay, Боктыбай). Some of the rivers that have their sources in the Mugalzhar are Or, Emba, Irgiz, Zhylandysay, Bolgasyn and Kauylzhyr.[2][3][4]
In a wider sense, Mughodzhary also include a number of other highlands and hillocks, in particular, Ural-Tobolsk Plateau, and the Northern Mughodzhary, which actually connect with Guberlin hills.
