In the biblical account, which mountain range is named as the Ark's landing place?

In the biblical account, the Ark comes to rest on the mountains of Ararat.

Genesis 8:4 uses the plural expression “mountains of Ararat,” identifying a region rather than naming one peak. Ararat was an ancient geographical area associated with Urartu, a kingdom in the region around eastern Anatolia and the southern Caucasus. The wording is therefore more precise than simply saying “Mount Ararat,” even though later tradition and popular culture often use that single mountain name.

Mount Ararat, the highest mountain in modern Turkey, became the best-known proposed location for Ark searches. Its association is influential, but Genesis itself does not say that the vessel landed on the summit of that specific volcano. Various explorers, religious groups, and alleged formations have made claims over the centuries, none universally accepted by archaeologists.

This answer also differs from the Quranic account, which names Mount Judi. The biblical text's plural regional wording is the key fact and explains why translations and later traditions can appear to disagree about the location.
