Imbabura is an inactive stratovolcano in northern Ecuador. Although it has not erupted for at least 14000 years it is not thought to be extinct. Imbabura is intermittently capped with snow and has no permanent glaciers.Covered in volcanic ash the slopes of Imbabura are especially fertile. In addition to cloud forests which are found across the northern Andes to an altitude of 3000 m the land around Imbabura is extensively farmed.
