Before you book, here is the lay of the land. Mount Roraima is the highest of the tepuis, the flat-topped table mountains of the Gran Sabana, rising about 2,800 m where Brazil, Venezuela, and Guyana meet. Its sheer cliffs and cloud-wrapped plateau inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World.
Reaching the summit is a serious trek. The minimum is about six days, and most expeditions run 8 to 10 days to allow 3 to 5 nights on the plateau. The ascent climbs a natural ramp, La Rampa, up the cliff face. There is no technical climbing, but real fitness is essential.
On top, you cross a surreal landscape of black rock, quartz fields known as the Valley of Crystals, natural jacuzzi pools, the Guardians of the Mountain rock formations, and the La Ventana viewpoint. Longer trips reach the Valley of the Lost World and the serene Lake Gladys.
