Fall Adventure Travel: Hiking Angel Falls

Fall travel usually brings to mind images of those crazy leaf peepers, apple picking, pumpkin patches and foliage. But here's a little something different: backpacking in Angel Falls. This Venezuelan destination is among the tallest waterfalls in the world and stands more than 3,000 feet high. It's even considered one of the eight natural wonders of the world.

And the best way that we've found? The AngelEco hiking tours. The eight-day, seven-night adventure puts rugged outdoor enthusiasts face-to-face with mother nature. Guests will trek through jungles, grasslands and canyons in Canaima National Park, interact with members of the Pemon tribe, and even catch a glimpse of rare birds and wildlife.

Sure fall foliage is nice. But if you're looking for unmatched beauty and a bit of adventure this Fall, you're best bet may be Venezuela's Angel Falls.
