Hot springs on Mount Roraima, Venezuela
Mount Roraima sits mainly in Venezuela, but the wedge-shaped plateau acts as a border between Brazil and Guyana as well. Most who make the ascent approach from the ramp-like route on the Venezuelan side, though a few brave climbers have scaled the sheer, 1,300-foot cliffs that dominate the Brazilian and Guyanese faces of the peak. No matter how you get to the table-top summit, bring a swimsuit, because natural Jacuzzi-like pools top Roraima amid dramatic rock formations. Social-media bragging about your achievement is strongly encouraged.
