The Taka Mountains are a cluster of granitic inselbergs in eastern Sudan overlooking the city of Kassala, near Sudan's border with Eritrea, with the Gash River running through the area at their base. The hills form a landmark backdrop to Kassala, where cafes and vendors operate beneath them in the Toteil district, and the surrounding region is home to the Beja people and the Bani Amir community. This entity documents the Taka Mountains specifically as a geological formation, a granitic inselberg cluster overlooking Kassala.
