How high do clouds rise?

Clouds can rise to various altitudes depending on their type and the atmospheric conditions. Generally, low clouds, like stratus and cumulus, form below 2,000 meters (6,600 feet), while mid-level clouds, such as altostratus and altocumulus, range from about 2,000 to 7,000 meters (6,600 to 23,000 feet). High clouds, like cirrus, can reach altitudes of 7,000 to 13,000 meters (23,000 to 42,000 feet) or even higher in some cases. The highest clouds, known as noctilucent clouds, can extend up to 85 kilometers (53 miles) in the upper atmosphere.
