ANGEL FALLS AND CANAIMA
The longest waterfall in the world plunges down from the
western flank of a gorge in the middle of the Auyan-tepui. With
a total height of 979m, and free fall of 807m, it is more than
19 times longer than Niagara. The water that leaves the summit
takes fourteen seconds to reach the bottom.
The journey to Angel Falls by riverboat unveils a collage of
lush jungle, rampant rapids, serene lagoons and 700 indigenous
species of plants. There’s excellent hiking or mountain-biking
in the area and you’ll enjoy relaxing in the swimming pools. The
Pemon village of Camaima is a great place to kick-back.
