Fold Mountains

Fold Mountains are usually formed from sedimentary rocks when two tectonic plates move together on a convergent boundary. The Himalayas and the Alps are two examples of fold mountains. Here is the Bitesize revision section on fold mountains, but also check out the excellent S-Cool revision site too. Have a look at the videos below too. I especially liked the song version done by a group of pupils to the tune of Bryan Adams' "Heaven".
