Nevado El Cisne, Stratovolcano in Los Nevados National Natural Park, Colombia.
Nevado El Cisne rises to 4,636 meters within the Cordillera Central of Colombia, forming a volcanic complex with its neighboring peak Morro Negro.
The volcano lost its permanent snow cover in 1960, leading to its reclassification from a snow-capped peak to what locals now call a Paramillo.
The mountain stands as a natural laboratory for scientists studying climate change effects and geological processes in the Colombian Andes.
Five distinct emission centers on the volcano provide locations for researchers to examine andesitic lava flows and study volcanic formations.
The volcano sits above the Palestina Fault, intersecting the El Bosque Batholith, a geological formation dating back 49.1 million years.
