Koh-i-Baba, Kuh-i-Baba ou montes Baba são a extensão ocidental da cordilheira Indocuche, e a origem dos três principais sistemas hidrícos do Afeganistão: o rio Cabul, o rio Helmand-, e o rio Hari. É coroado pelo pico Foladi (Shah Fuladi) que alcança os 4951 m de altitude, a sul de Bamiã. Esta zona é onde habita o povo Hazara, um dos mais remotos e abandonados do Afeganistão, com um alto índice de analfabetismo. A maior parte da população depende da agricultura como fonte de rendimento, sendo a batata o cultivo principal.
