An-Nusayriyah Mountains
The 1601st highest mountain range in the world
The Coastal Mountain Range (Silsilat al-Jibāl as-Sāḥilīyah), also called Jabal al-Ansariya, Jabal an-Nusayria or Jabal al-`Alawīyin (Ansari, Nusayri or Alawi Mountains), is a mountain range in northwestern Syria running north–south, parallel to the coastal plain. The mountains have an average width of 32 kilometres (20 mi), and their average peak elevation is just over 1,200 metres (3, 900 ft) with the highest peak, Nabi Yunis, reaching 1,562 metres (5, 125 ft), east of Latakia. In the north the average height declines to 900 metres (3, 000 ft), and to 600 metres (2, 000 ft) in the south. This mountain range has been home to an Alawite population since the Middle Ages.
