In the southeast the Uludoruk Peak reaches 15,563 feet (4,744 metres) though further west, the Demirkazık Peak (12,320 feet ) and Mount Aydos (11,414 feet ) are also significant peaks. Mountain crests exceed 7,500 feet (2,300 metres) in many places, particularly in the east, where Turkey’s highest mountain, Mount Ararat (Ağrı), reaches 16,945 feet (5,165 metres) close to the borders with Armenia and Iran. About one-fourth of the surface has an elevation above 4,000 feet (1,200 metres), and less than two-fifths lies below 1,500 feet (460 metres). Turkey is a predominantly mountainous country, and true lowland is confined to the coastal fringes.
