Because the water falls so far it becomes a fine mist which can be felt a mile away before it reaches the ground below. The falls spill from a cliff near the summit of Mount Auyantepui into the Kerep River (also called the Rio Gauya).

Named after the American aviator Jimmie Angel, Angel Falls is located in the state of Bolívar in Venezuela and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The falls is becoming a popular tourist destination, but it is still difficult to visit. To get to the base of the falls one must fly to Canaima camp and embark on a river trip from there. River trips can be taken only from June to December, as the river to too low in the dryer months. Alternatively, one can book an aerial flyby of the falls, but a view of the falls is not guaranteed as they are usually surrounded by clouds. Credit: Tom Sanders/Aerial Focus Credit: Tom Sanders.

“Angel´s Falls” is the longest water fall in the world with more than 1.000 meters long. Is located in the “Canaima National Park”, which has been proposed as a natural Heritage of Mankind by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and is located south of the Bolivar State, 225 km from the Orinoco River. By virtue of the importance and quality of its environmental resources, this area was declared National Park on 1962. The jungle and savannas of this area are constantly interrupted by magnificent “Tepuys” or table-top mountains as high as 2.800 meters belonging to the Precambric age (3.500 million years ago).
