Merida is famous for the world's longest cable car , which starts in Merida and ends at Pico Espejo . All this at an altitude of 4,700 meters! It's called Mukumbari by locals and is a great place to start your backpacking trips. Unless, of course, altitude sickness kills you. And it is for her sake that tourists drive up the Teleferico mountain (by cable car) and then go down from the boot. Merida is also a good place for winter sports. Who would have thought that anyone in Venezuela is skiing ! And as it turns out, it is possible in Merida. If you like extreme sports, this city in Venezuela is also a great choice. Rafting, paragliding and canyoning on site.
