The Nevado El Cisne (English: The Swan) is a mountain in the Central Cordillera of the Andes in Colombia. Its summit is at an altitude of 4636 metres. The mountain is one of the five lava domes of the Nevado del Ruiz volcano complex. Despite the nevado part of the name indicating a permanently snow-capped mountain, the summit of El Cisne is now below the permanent snow line as a result of global warming, and it is no longer considered a true nevado.
