Mountains are formed through powerful geological processes over millions of years. The main ways mountains form include:

Tectonic Plate Collision (Fold Mountains)

When two tectonic plates collide, the Earth's crust is pushed upward, forming fold mountains.

Example: The Himalayas (formed by the collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates).

Faulting (Block Mountains)

When faults in the Earth's crust move, large blocks of land can be uplifted or dropped, creating block mountains.

Example: The Sierra Nevada Mountains in the USA.

Volcanic Activity (Volcanic Mountains)

When magma from inside the Earth erupts and cools down, it builds up over time to form volcanic mountains.

Example: Mount Fuji in Japan.

Erosion (Residual Mountains)

Wind, water, and ice slowly wear down softer rock, leaving harder rock standing as mountains.

Example: The Catskill Mountains in the USA.

Each of these processes takes millions of years and shapes the landscape dramatically!
