The southeastern foothills of the Verkhoyansk Mountains rise a good 20 km to the east , there under the name Tarbagannachskije Golzy ("Tarbagannacher Kahlberge"), up to almost 2200 m and mark the border to the Khabarovsk region .
Allach-Jun belongs to Ulus Ust-Maiski and is located a good 200 km east-northeast of its administrative center Ust-Maja . The settlement lies on the unmistakable area (meschselennaja territorija) of the Ulus.
history
The settlement was founded in the 1930s as the area's first gold mining settlement and was given urban-type settlement status in 1937. With the spin-off of an Allach-Junski rajon from the Ust-Maiski rajon, Allach-Jun became its administrative seat in 1940, until this function was transferred to Eldikan in 1948 (the Rajons were reunited in 1953).
With the widespread cessation of gold mining in the 1990s, almost all residents left the place; During the administrative reform of 2004, no municipality was created in view of the expected complete abandonment of the place.
