جبال طوروس الخلفية

(تم التحويل من Anti-Taurus Mountains)

جبال طوروس الخلفية Anti-Taurus Mountains (من باليونانية: Αντίταυρος, تركية: Aladağlar) هي سلسلة جبال في جنوب وشرق تركيا, curving northeast from the Taurus Mountains.[1] The tallest mountain in the range is Mount Erciyes, 12,851 feet (3,917 m) high. The ancient Greek geographer Strabo wrote that in his time the summit was never free from snow, and that those few who ascended it could see both the Black Sea and the Mediterranean.[2]

Mount Erciyes, the highest peak in central Anatolia, is a massive stratovolcano located in the northern part of the Anti-Taurus.
