Canaima National Park is a vast and remote natural wonder, forming part of the Guiana Shield, the world’s largest block of exposed Precambrian rock. The park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most biodiverse places on Earth, with over 3,000 plant species, 300 bird species and 100 mammal species. The centerpiece of the park is the awe-inspiring Angel Falls, the world’s highest waterfall, tumbling 3,212 feet (979 meters) over a sheer cliff. The park is also home to the world’s largest single sheet of water, Lake Canaima, and to the strange and beautiful tepuis, or table mountains. With its dramatic landscapes, pristine rainforest and abundance of wildlife, Canaima National Park is a nature lover’s paradise.
