The Khentei-Daur Highlands, also known as the Khentei-Chikoi Highlands, are a mountainous area in Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia.

Owing to a number of factors such as tectonic faults, rock fissuring, and density of river networks, the Khentei-Daur Highlands are the second region in the Transbaikal area regarding the formation and occurrence of aufeis (naleds) sheets.
