Our expedition will go to the flat top of the table mountain Roraima, overcoming several climatic zones at once and discovering several endemics. Rising in the Guiana Highlands, at the junction of Venezuela, Brazil and Guyana, the Roraima tepui once served as the prototype for Conan Doyle's novel The Lost World, and today is a Mecca among climbers on the most beautiful routes.
