Auyan Tepui Trek Package

Package Overview

The Auyan tepui expedition is perhaps the most challenging trek of Venezuela. Rarely visited, climbing becomes an unforgetable adventure. The Auyan tepui is one of the largest table mountains and his bizare rock formation and the flora are very exceptional. We hike across beautiful rock landscapes and through deep forest, the same route used by Jimmy Angel and Gustavo Heny took when their plane crashed on the top of the mountain, while looking for a gold river, in 1937. The Churun river with its golden shining water invites us for a swim.
