Mountain Ranges and Systems of the World Mapped
Jul 4, 2023
A mountain range is a series of mountains arranged in a line and connected by high ground. Mountain ranges are formed by a variety of geological processes, but most of the substantial ones on our planet are the result of plate tectonics. Mountain ranges that have arisen from the same cause and are similar in form, structure, and alignment make up a mountain system.
Reddit user BerryBlue_BlueBerry created the world map of the 200 largest mountain ranges, sorted by peak elevation using data from Peakbagger.com.
