from
Kavac to Canaima, sailing the rivers Akanán, Carrao and
Churún
DAY
1
Meeting
point at the airport of Ciudad Bolívar where we will
board our charter plane, a small Cessna 206 to fly to Kavac,
small Indian community located on the Southeast flank of Auyantepuy.
We spend the day exploring the famous canyon of Kavac, where
one has to swim through a little canyon to reach a nice 20 meters
(65 feet) waterfall. We will spend the night in hammocks and
mosquito nets in the community.
DAY 2
After
breakfast, a 30 minutes walk to the waterfall Toma de Agua,
for a little swim, while our crew prepare food and equipment
for our river expedition. Back from the fall, a short ride in
4x4 to reach Kamarata, another Indian community, where we board
a motorized curiara (Indian made dugout canoe) and sail the
Akanán River. We stop at around 4:30 at Ibanameru where
we will have dinner and spend the night in hammocks.
DAY 3
After
a hearty breakfast, we continue our way to Campo Carrao, where
we can observe the remains of a DC-3 that made an emergency
landing years ago... further on, we leave the Akanán
River for the Carrao, we will have lunch at Kuay and at 4 o'clock
will reach Arenal where we will spend the night in hammocks
like the previous nights.
DAY
4
Sailing
first the Carrao River and then upriver the Churún into
the Devil's canyon, in order to reach the island Ratoncito,
where we leave the curiara and continue walking up to the base
of Angel Falls. Then back on the Churún, and to the campsite
Arenal where we will spend another night.
DAY 5
Down
the Carrao again to the waterfall El Sapo, where we can walk
behind the curtain of water and then Canaima, our final destination.
We spend the last night in Canaima in a comfortable rustic lodge,
(without A/C but with private bathroom) for a well deserved
rest.
