Kurd Mountain or Kurd Dagh (Kurdish: Çiyayê Kurmênc; Arabic: جبل الأكراد, romanized: jabal al-ʾakrād; Turkish: Kürt Dağı, officially Kurt Dağı) is a highland region in northwestern Syria and southeastern Turkey. It is located in the Aleppo Governorate of Syria and Kilis Province of Turkey. The Kurd Mountain should not be confused with the neighboring Jabal al-Akrad, which is located further southwest in Latakia Governorate.
