The plateau occupies a great part of central Siberia between the Yenisei and Lena rivers.
It is located in the Siberian Platform and extends over an area of 3,500,000 km² (1,400,000 sq mi), between the Yenisei in the west and the Central Yakutian Lowland in the east.
To the south it is bound by the Altai Mountains, Salair Ridge, Kuznetsk Alatau, the Eastern and Western Sayan Mountains and other mountains of Tuva, as well as the Baikal and Transbaikal mountains.
To the north of the plateau lie the North Siberian Lowland and to the east the plateau gives way to the Central Yakutian Lowland and the Lena Plateau.

The surface of the Central Siberian Plateau is characterized by the alternation of wide plateaus and ridges, some of the latter sharply jagged.
The Central Siberian Plateau covers one-third of Siberia.
