Kyzylbelen (Kazakh: Қызылбелен; Russian: гора Кызылбелен) is a mountain in Moiynkum District, Jambyl Region, Kazakhstan.[3]
The Kyzylbelen rises in the center of the northern part of the Zhambyl massif, at the eastern edge of the Betpak Dala. It is located close to the southern section of the Zheltau, part of the Chu-Ili Range. With an elevation of 972m (3,189feet), it is the highest summit of the Zhambyl massif.[4] [1] [2]
In some works the Zhambyl massif is considered part of the Zheltau, although the highest point of the Zheltau in the strict sense is the 599m (1,965feet) high Suykadyr further north.[5] [1]
