It is the highest point in the region – 136 m above sea level. On the steep cliffs to the Volga dolomites and limestones – the bedrocks of the Permian system are exposed. In 1937 two complete skeletons of mammoths were discovered in a ravine near Mount Lobach. 13 archaeological sites have been found here: sites of ancient people of the Paleolithic era and the 1st millennium AD. The remains of trenches from the period of the Civil War have been preserved on the mountain.
