The Polar Urals (Russian: Полярный Урал) are a mountain range in the western part of the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug and the northeastern part of Komi, Russian Federation. The border between Europe and Asia runs along the main ridge of the Polar Urals.[1] The Salekhard–Igarka Railway stretch of the Northern Railway runs along the valley of the Sob in the mountains.
