Almost done! The last 14 km pela savana até Paratepuy, where one jeep is waiting for us.
The neighbour mountain of Mount Roraima is called Matawi or Kukenán. That is where sacrifices took place; the Indians offered themselves to calm Makunaima
Time to explore the summit of Monte Roraima crossing borders between Venezuela, Guyana and Brazil.

In the northern border of Brazil there is a mysterious mountain where you only reach by foot or helicopter. It was 90 km hiking in six days with no comfort and totally integrated in nature.
Mount Roraima is one of the hardest trails I have ever done. Even wearing suitable clothing and equipment and being an expert at this kind of trekking, it is vital to have specific physical preparation. I confess I failed; I did not work out for months like I did before. It just happens that the trip was an opportunity, I decided to accept the challenge three days before leaving and, even with the difficulties, I am sure it was worthwhile.
