The Sarisarinama is situated on the edges of the Amzonas and Gran Sabana provinces in southern Venezuela. Being a part of the Jaua-Sarisarinama Massive, the Sarisarinama rises to an altitude of 2,300 meters approximately. Also known as the Sarisarinama Tepuy, it stands as one of the remotest mountains in the whole of Latin America.
The road nearest to it, is situated hundreds of miles away and the area is inhabited by certain isolated Indian communities. According to a popular legend of the Ye'kuana Indians, the evil spirit living on the Sarisarinama, makes the sound 'sari sari', while eating human beings. The Sarisarinama supposedly gets its name from this folklore. The Pauo River flows from the Sarisarinama and the entire region is covered with dense forests.
The Sarisarinama has always astonished people by its mysterious holes or the 'simas'. These are huge perfectly circular stone depressions, which are 350 meters deep and 350 meters wide. Till date biologists and geologists have been amazed by the challenging mystery of the simas. Some believe that the simas are caused due to underground water erosion. To discover these holes, mountaineers start the climb from the northern side of Sarisarinama and reach the simas by foot.
