This tepuy is said to be a piece of heaven on earth, because its extraordinary panorama offers tourists a view of giant vertical walls that house in their plateaus a fragile and diverse endemic flora and fauna, wrapped by gods and spirits, according to what they say. the nearby indigenous communities.

This natural monument is protected by the National Institute of Parks (Inparques), whose main goal is the protection and preservation of ecosystems.
The Roraima, which once was an impenetrable plateau for all (except for the Pemon Indians), now receives thousands of hikers annually who make the trip for several days to enjoy the impressive landscapes offered by this majestic site.
A trip to heaven
The adventure of climbing the Roraima begins in the town of Paraitepuy, where travelers leave on the way to their base. The ascent takes one day to reach the base of the plateau and another to ascend the ramp, the natural staircase in the rock that reaches the top. Normally, another two days are necessary for the return. Many people spend a full day at the top of the mountain, which totals five days of hiking.
Already at the top the area is impressive in its extent and the diversity of flora with which the explorer is obtained are truly impressive, with very complex ecosystems no more than ninety centimeters high.
Also, you can visit the famous "Roraima's jacuzzi", a series of natural pools, the Lake of Charms, the Devil's Canyon, "La Proa" (the highest point of the tepuy), the Valley of the Crystals, with its beautiful quartz formations and the so-called Triple Point, where the borders of Venezuela, Brazil and Guyana converge, divided between Venezuela (80%), Guyana (15%) and Brazil (5%) with cliffs 400 meters high all its sides.
Because Roraima is one of the most visited natural monuments of the region, it is required that the visitor is responsible for the collection of their waste, due to improper behaviors have generated damage to the ecosystem of this beautiful Venezuelan tepuy.
That is why, the tourist must bet for an ecological behavior of height, not extracting rocks, nor leaving waste that alter the landscapes and the habitat of the monument.
