The Ulakhan-Chistay Range (Russian: Улахан-Чистай; Yakut: Улахан Чыыстай сис) is a range of mountains in far North-eastern Russia. Administratively the range is part of the Sakha Republic of the Russian Federation.[2]

A section of the range, including the upper course of the Moma River basin, as well as the Buordakh Massif with Mount Pobeda, is part of the Moma Natural Park, one of the protected areas of Russia.[3]
