About this

Angel Falls is the world's tallest uninterrupted waterfall, located in Canaima National Park in southeastern Venezuela. The falls drop 979 meters (3,212 feet) from the summit of Auyán-Tepui, a flat-topped sandstone mountain, into the Churún River below. Access to the site is limited and typically requires a multi-day expedition involving air travel to a remote airstrip, followed by motorized canoe travel and hiking through dense jungle terrain. The surrounding landscape consists of ancient tepui formations, savanna, and tropical forest within a UNESCO World Heritage site.
