This park, created in 1978, reflects the farthest past of the Earth thanks to the Tepuys-jidi-Sarisari-ñama-jidi and Guanacoco-jidi, thus called by the Yekwana or Makiritares. They formed 1 590 and 1 250 million years ago. And on the Sarisariñama plateau opens a huge hole of 350 m deep in 352 in diameter, among others, still almost unexplored. On the Jaua plateau, located two kilometres south of the former, the hole retains the same conical shape but its dimensions are smallerIt is on its northern face that there is the presence of a stream of continuous water and a large sloping gallery that moves towards the south flan. From Du, comes the Rio Carumu. The heavy rains that irrigate a nearly virgin forest also generate Ríos, Erebato or Ventuari. Wildlife is little known due to the difficult access to Tepuy, which can only be observed by helicopter. However, some species were carried forward, such as Marmosa tyleriana (an endemic hauteurs marsupial), the danta Tapirus terrestris (Tapir du Brazil) and the beautiful onca panthera (Jaguar). At the flora level: cyperaceae, bromeliaceae, orchids and ericaceous, among others.Check with agencies for the organisation of any shipment.Situation.
