Nurgush is a subrange of the Urals. It stretches roughly from SSW to NNE for 50 kilometres (31 mi) in the southern section of the long Ural chain. The range stretches between the southern shore of lake Zyuratkul to the mouth of river Berezyak. The highest point is 1,406 metres (4,613 ft) high, rising in the Bolshoy Nurgush section located in the northern part. Maly Nurgush is the southern section. The southwestern limit of the range is marked by the valley of river Yuryuzan.[5][4]

The lower slopes of the Nurgush are partly covered with dark coniferous taiga; there is mixed spruce, fir and birch forest in the valleys. The higher elevations have often a barren look with kurums and mountain tundra.[6]
