The Auyantepuy is one of the best-known tepuis. (The tepuyes are those flat mountains that end with immense vertical walls). For its part, the national park extends over 30,000 km² (a territory larger than Belgium), up to the border with Guyana and Brazil, and because of its size is considered the largest in the world.

The height of the falls was determined by an investigation by the National Geographic Society carried out by the journalist Ruth Robertson in 1949.
