The Himalayas are known as “young fold mountains” because they were formed only a few million years ago. When two or more of the Earth’s tectonic plates collide, fold mountains are formed. The compressing boundaries and debris are folded into rocky terrain, hills, and mountain ranges at the point of collision.
