How att komma till Angel Falls?

8

Jag har fått höra att det är väldigt svårt att komma till fallen själva. Wikitravel tycks indikera att du bara kan flyga in. Vilka alternativ finns för att få en bra bild av fallen själva?

Jag gjorde lite forskning och samlade olika svar:

Från about.com finns det två möjligheter:

Air: As stated, access to Canaima National Park is by air to the village of Canaima, about 50 km away from the falls. From there, you take either a smaller plane and fly to an airstrip at Canaima Lagoon, or travel by river to the lagoon. From the lagoon, you hike to a view point of the falls.

There are also daily flights via Puerto Ordaz connecting Canaima airstrip with the major cities of Venezuela. The airstrip is a short jeep-train ride from nearby Lodges. Check flights from your area to Caracas or other Venezuelan cities with connections to Ciudad Bolicar and Canaima. From this page, you can also browse hotels, rental cars, and special deals.

Water: From Canaima, when the water is neither too high or too low, you can travel by motorized canoe, called curiara up the Carrao River, then the Churun river to an point where you can then hike through the jungle to the falls. The river portion takes about four hours, and you should allow an hour or more for the hike. Canoe access to Angel Falls is restricted to the rainy season, June to November.

Från Wikipedia:

Angel Falls is one of Venezuela's top tourist attractions, though a trip to the falls is a complicated affair. The falls are located in an isolated jungle, and a flight from Puerto Ordaz or Ciudad Bolívar is required to reach Canaima camp, the starting point for river trips to the base of the falls. River trips generally take place from June to December, when the rivers are deep enough for the wooden curiaras used by the Pemon guides. During the dry season (December to March) there is less water seen than in the other months.

Mycket intressant information finns på Backpacker-Tours . De förklarar inte bara hur man ska komma dit men också nämna ett pris och en varaktighet. Liknande information finns på Världen av vattenfall . De förklarar också i detalj hur man kommer dit.
