Kurupung is located in the heart of the Mazaruni River area in the Pakaraima mountain range. It is known for its scenic beauty and vast, spectacular forest, and is filled with caves that are excellent for exploration.
It is mainly a mining town, with an exploding population of coastlanders, Venezuelans and Brazilians. While the main business activity is mining, many visit the area to enjoy its lush nature.
