An adventure through Canaima National Park to Angel Falls followed by a trek across the extraordinary Roraima tepui.
Venezuela is a destination of dramatic landscapes, from Caribbean islands and tropical forest to immense waterfalls and ancient tabletop mountains known as tepuis.
Canaima National Park is the gateway to Angel Falls, one of the world’s most remarkable natural sights. Reaching the falls can involve a combination of small aircraft, river travel and jungle hiking, turning the journey itself into part of the adventure.
A hike to viewpoints near Angel Falls reveals the scale of the landscape, with water dropping from the top of Auyán-tepui into dense forest below.
Roraima offers a completely different experience. This massive tepui rises above the surrounding savannah and can be reached on a multi-day trek. Along the way, hikers cross rivers, camp beneath immense cliffs and eventually climb onto a summit plateau filled with unusual rock formations, endemic plants, caves, pools and waterfalls.
The summit landscape feels almost otherworldly. Roraima’s isolation has helped create distinctive plant and animal life, while its position near the borders of Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil gives the trek a powerful sense of scale and remoteness.
Combining Angel Falls and Roraima creates one of South America’s most unusual adventure journeys, pairing an iconic waterfall with a genuinely distinctive trekking experience.
