Mount Roraima - one of world`s most extraordinary natural geological formations

Baku, October 21, AZERTAC
Mount Roraima is the highest of South America`s Pakaraima Mountains and one of the world`s most extraordinary natural geological formations.
The 31-square-kilometer summit area is defined by 400-meter-tall cliffs on all sides and includes the borders of Brazil, Venezuela, and Guyana.
The tabletop mountains of the Pakaraima range are considered to be some of the oldest geological formations on Earth, dating back over 2 billion years. Apparently, that's how long it takes to make something as wondrous as Mount Roraima.
Captivated by these wonders, visitors flock to Mount Roraima in droves to ascend its slopes and reach its miraculous summit. There, at more than 9,000 feet above sea level, hikers can literally stand among the clouds.
It may not be easy to make it all the way up there, but it's surely worth it.
