Balagan-Tas (, ) is a cinder cone volcano in Russia. It was discovered by V.A. Zimin in 1939 and is one of the main features of Moma Natural Park.
==Description== This volcano is located in the Chersky Range, in the Moma River valley, and is the only clearly Quaternary volcano in the area; the existence of another volcano active in the 1770s has not been confirmed. The supposed Indigirsky volcano (reported near the Indigirka river) may be actually Balagan-Tas. Its location has often been given incorrectly.
