The Mandara Mountains (Monts Mandara) are a volcanic range extending about 200km (about 125 mi) along the northern part of the Cameroon-Nigeria border from the Benue River in the south (9.3°N 12.8°E / 9.3; 12.8) to the north-west of Maroua in the north (11.0°N 13.9°E / 11.0; 13.9). The highest elevation is 1494 m (4900 ft) the summit of Mount Oupay (10°53′N 13°47′E)[citation needed]. The region is densely populated mainly by speakers of Chadic languages.
