Mount Roraima is a table-top mountain located in the Guiana Highlands of South America. It straddles the borders of Venezuela, Guyana, and Brazil and is considered one of the oldest geological formations on Earth, dating back to over two billion years. With a height of over 2,800 meters, Mount Roraima is the highest of the Pakaraima range of tepui mountains and is one of the most unique and stunning natural landmarks in South America.

The summit of Mount Roraima is flat, and its walls are nearly vertical, creating a natural fortress that has been compared to the mythical Garden of Eden. The mountaintop is covered with a diverse array of endemic plant and animal species, many of which are found nowhere else in the world. There are several waterfalls, including the Garganta del Diablo, which is one of the highest in the world.
