Find out more about the ascent of these two amazing mountains


ikabaru

Ikabaru is a small town which has long been a gold and diamond mining centre in the south of the Gran Sabana. It is now a base for mining operations further to the west, heading towards the Paragua river. As these pictures show, damage inflicted by mining is severe. The population of Ikabaru is estimated at 5,000, though it may well be higher than that. Ikabaru is NOT a tourist town !
