Sample Itinerary

Two hikers walk on a grassy trail toward Mount Roraima’s flat-topped summit with steep cliffs under a partly cloudy sky. Dense green trees surround the base, capturing the adventure of a classic Mount Roraima Trek.
Day 1

In the morning, take a 2-hour transfer from Santa Elena to Paraitepuy and pass by the last village before Mount Roraima. In the afternoon, start your trek to the "Lost World," and hike through open savannahs for about 5-hours along the Kukenan River. Tonight you will camp near the Kukenan River. In the early evening relax and enjoy a refreshing swim before dinner.

 

A massive tabletop mountain, Mount Roraima, with steep cliffs rises above green, rolling hills and valleys under a partly cloudy sky, bathed in warm sunlight.
Day 2

Wake up early and get ready for a full day of fabulous hiking. Today you will be trekking for 5-hours. For the first 2-hours, you will hike uphill to  1870m above sea level, through beautiful Gran Sabana landscape filled with orchids and smooth hills. In the afternoon, arrive at your next base camp. Here you can spot multicolored birds during the day and fireflies at night! Just footsteps away from your camp, you can see the glittering quartz wall of Mount Roraima standing strong directly in front of you.

A tall waterfall cascades down a steep, rocky cliff on the Mount Roraima Trek, surrounded by lush green vegetation and trees, set against a partly cloudy sky.
Day 3

Enjoy a healthy breakfast before heading out for the most challenging part of the trek. Spend 2-hours climbing a steep hill through the rainforest crossing the wall of Roraima diagonally. Enjoy the scenery of prehistoric tree ferns and carnivorous plants. Trek for 1-hour before reaching the next camp.  Here you can admire the massive grey rock formations in the shapes of turtles and dragons.

A dramatic, flat-topped mountain—Mount Roraima—rises above the clouds, with waterfalls cascading down its steep cliffs and mist surrounding the plateau. The landscape stretches out in the background, inviting adventurers to trek under a blue sky.
Day 4

Spend the whole day exploring the top of Mount Roraima. Feel the magic as you walk through changing landscapes and admire the strange rock formations and lush valleys. Look down towards your feet; you are standing at the point where Venezuela, Brazil, and Guyana meet.

Tents are set up on a grassy plain with dramatic Mount Roraima rising in the background under a blue sky with clouds, suggesting a scenic, remote campsite along the Mount Roraima Trek.
Day 5

After exploring the top of Mount Roraima, start your 7-hour hike downhill where you will retrace your steps to reach Rio Tek Camp. In the afternoon, go for a refreshing swim in the river and take in the views from Mount Roraima of Kukenan Mountains.

A multi-tiered waterfall flows over dark rocks into a shallow pool, its vibrant orange-red hues contrasting with the white water—an iconic sight along the Mount Roraima Trek, surrounded by lush green foliage.
Day 6

Rise early and enjoy your last 4-hour hike to Paraitepuy Village where you will transfer back to Santa Elena. Stop by Quebrada Jaspe, a natural forming river above Jaspe red stones.  Enjoy your last moments in Canaima National Park and admire the beauty of Venezuela and Mount Roraima.

A dramatic cliffside with green vegetation overlooks a sea of white clouds, while distant flat-topped mountains, like those seen on the Mount Roraima Trek, rise above the cloud layer under a clear blue sky.
