Hezar Masjed Mountains (Persian: رشتهکوه هزارمسجد, lit. 'Thousand Mosques Mountain Range') are a group of mountains that form the southeastern section of the Kopet Dag Range. Located about 20 kilometres east of Dargaz and 70 kilometres north of Mashhad in Razavi Khorasan province in Iran and stretched in a northwest–southeast direction (from northwest to northeast of Mashhad), the mountains are situated almost at the extreme northeastern part of Iran.[1]
