Sapo Falls, Waterfall in Canaima National Park, Venezuela.
The cascading Sapo Falls drops into a separate lagoon formed by the Carrao River within the Gran Sabana region of Venezuela.
The construction of the hiking trail to Sapo Falls by Tomás Bernal marked a significant development in making this natural formation accessible to visitors.
The Indigenous Pemon people of the Gran Sabana region maintain their traditional practices and knowledge of the land surrounding Sapo Falls.
Visitors reach Sapo Falls through guided tours that include a 3-4 kilometer hike, with options to walk behind the waterfall for different perspectives.
The water flowing over Sapo Falls maintains a distinct reddish color due to the mineral composition of the surrounding rock formations.
