'''Mount Narodnaya''' (also known as '''Naroda''' and '''Poenurr'''; {{lang-ru|Гора  Народная, На'рода-Из}}; "'''People's Mountain'''")<ref>{{cite web|url=http://geo.1september.ru/articlef.php?ID=200600214|title=Физико-географическая статистика России}}</ref> is the highest peak of the [[Ural Mountains|Urals]] in [[Russia]]. Its elevation is {{convert|1894|m|ft|0}}. It is in [[Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug]] in [[Tyumen Oblast]], 0.5&nbsp;km to east from the border of [[Komi Republic]].{{citation needed|date=May 2012}} The name refers to [[:ru:Народа|Naroda River]], which originates from the mount), located in the [[Research Range]].

It is the highest point in [[European Russia]] outside the [[Caucasus]]. This leads to its large [[topographic prominence]] of {{convert|1772|m|ft|0}}.
Narodnaya is located in the Ural mountains [[water divide]], and therefore on the border between [[Europe]] and [[Asia]]: the Naroda river flows south-east from the summit into the [[Ob river]] in [[Siberia]], and the Kos'yu river flows north-west from the summit into the [[Pechora River|Pechora river]] in Europe.

The mountain is formed with [[quartzite]]s and [[Metamorphic rock|metamorphosed]] [[slate]]s of the [[Proterozoic]] Eon and [[Cambrian]] Period. There are some [[glacier]]s on the mountain. Also, there are sparse forests of [[larch]] and [[birch]] in the deep valleys at the foot of the mountain. The slopes of the mountain are covered with highland [[tundra]].

The easiest route to the summit is a technically easy hike on the moderate north-west slope. Depending on snow and ice conditions, [[crampons]] may be required.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://old.risk.ru/eng/regions/ural/index.html|title=The Circumpolar Urals|publisher=Risk Online}}</ref> The south wall of Narodnaya is steeper and less commonly used to reach the summit.
