List of mountain ranges

This is a list of mountain ranges on Earth and a few other astronomical bodies. First, the highest and longest mountain ranges on Earth are listed, followed by more comprehensive alphabetical lists organized by continent. Ranges in the oceans and on other celestial bodies are listed afterwards.

Mountain ranges on Earth

By height

These are the 23 highest mountain ranges. All are above .

<nowiki>*</nowiki> Part of the Hindu Kush-Himalayas region

<nowiki>**</nowiki> Part of the Pamir-Kunlun region

All of the Asian ranges above except the Alborz and the Armenian Highlands have been formed in part over the past 35 to 55 million years by the collision between the Indian Plate and Eurasian Plate. The Indian Plate is still particularly mobile and these mountain ranges continue to rise in elevation every year and this page may need to be updated in a few years; of these the Himalayas are rising most quickly; the Kashmir and Pamirs region to the north of the Indian subcontinent is the point of confluence of these mountains which encircle the Tibetan Plateau.
