The San Miguel River rises on the slopes of the Andes Mountains, in the extreme south of the Colombian department of Nariño, on the border between Colombia and Ecuador.[1] It then flows east, marking the border between the two countries, before passing through Ecuador and then joining the Putumayo River, again on the border.[2]
