where are the hindu kush mountains located on a map
Hindu Kush The Hindu Kush (/kʊʃ, kuːʃ/), also known in Ancient Greek as the Caucasus Indicus (Ancient Greek: Καύκασος Ινδικός) or Paropamisadae (Ancient Greek: Παροπαμισάδαι), in Pashto and Persian as هندوکش‎, is an 800-kilometre-long (500 mi) mountain range that stretches near the Afghan-Pakistan border,[2][3] from central Afghanistan to northern Pakistan. It forms the western section of the Hindu Kush Himalayan Region (HKH).[4][5][6] It divides the valley of the Amu Darya (the ancient Oxus) to the north from the Indus River valley to the south.
Eastern Ghats The hill station of Yercaud is located in the Shevaroy Hills. The Biligiriranga Hills, which run east from the Western Ghats to the River Kaveri, form a forested ecological corridor that connects the Eastern and Western Ghats, and allows the second-largest wild Asian elephant population in India to range between the South Eastern Ghats, the Biligiriranga Hills and Nilgiri Hills, and the South Western Ghats.
