"La Cima del Cielo" (English: "The Highest Point of the Sky") is a song performed by Argentine-Venezuelan singer-songwriter Ricardo Montaner. It was written by Montaner and Pablo Manavello and released in late 1989 as the lead single from the album Un Toque de Misterio (1990). The song became the first number-one single for the singer in the Billboard Top Latin Songs chart in January 1990.

The song was re-recorded by Montaner in 1999 with a new musical arrangement, and it was included on the setlist of his album Ricardo Montaner con la London Metropolitan Orchestra which was produced by Bebu Silvetti. Also a Portuguese version was recorded by the singer in 2004.

Ricardo Montaner began his recording career in the late 1970s, independently recording an album titled Mares (1978). In 1983, he released Cada Día, his first album for Venezuela's largest record label, Rodven Records, and only enjoyed limited success in Venezuela. The following recordings, Ricardo Montaner (1987) and Ricardo Montaner, Vol. 2 (1988), were quite successful and established him as a popular artist.

The former album includes a pair of telenovela opening themes, "Vamos a Dejarlo" (which was used in Esa Muchacha de Ojos Café) and "Yo Que Te Amé" (for the soap opera Enamorada), while the latter album was his international breakthrough, with singles like "Tan Enamorados", "A Donde Va el Amor" and "Sólo con un Beso", that became Billboard Top Latin Songs top ten hits. He also recorded "Tu Piano y Mi Guitarra" a duet with Alejandro Lerner, and made an impact in countries such as México, Colombia, and United States. Montaner continued his career with Un Toque de Misterio released in 1990, an album that included his first number-one hit in the Americal Latin charts, "La Cima del Cielo".
