A small walk you have to do if you stay in Purmamarca. The colors of the hills are even more beautiful at sunset.

Certainly one of the local highlights. Don't skyp it. You stand in front of the art of mother nature: grandiose, sublime. From the road. You don't need to walk or go anywhere

it's simply breathtaking. You can't describe it nor will the pictures show its true intensity and beauty of the colors. Worth a trip from anywhere in the world!

If you're going to Salta, you basically can't miss this place. Just go see it. There are 7 colours of mountains all the way on the drive there, and on hikes around Purmamarca. I'm told the sunrise and sunset is gorgeous but our hours did not coincide with sunset, and our morning was cloudly. But it's gorgeous with or without lighting. Kinda like Rainbow Canyon in Death Valley.

We stopped in Purmamarca on our way to Tilcara to visit the Inca ruins. The drive leading up to this area and beyond is simply stunning!!!! The town's square has a large artisan market. I think it might be daily as we were not there on the weekend.Note the best pictures are taken just entering the town. You'll know where because all the cars and tour buses are stopped there. Some local artisans are also set-up there. Wait to shop in the village. For a couple of dollars you can have your picture taken with a Lama with the mountains as your back-drop.

This is one of most beautiful sites I saw in Argentina. Every turn of this 3 kilometer walk is another amazing view. The colors look like they came out of a painter's palette . The walk takes over an hour, and is just incredible.

especially the walk around it is nice as you get away from Purmamarca and are left with an awesome landscape. Walk starts just left of "town"....you cannot miss it!

You will lost your mind here ... You will not get tired to see it for hours ... No wonder it is a treasury of the mankind

The Hill is attractive from a distance, but it is magnificent when seen up close. Do not miss the 4 kilometer walk that takes your very close to the hill and all the way around the town.

Very, very nice. Different times of the day based on the sun you discover something new... hard to describe...

If you are not tired to death by the end of the day, I strongly recommend a walk around the hills around sunset. Or if you're an early-morning type of person, the colours are also amazing during sunrise.

The hill is best seen in the morning or in the late afternoon , the colours change with the light of the sun . You won't regret waiting a little bit for the right moment , it's certainly worth the effort .

El Cierro de Siete Colores is a very beautiful mountain which as the name reveals has 7 different colors. There is a spot in the center of the village from where you have a great view.The whole area around Purmamarca is very nice and you can do small hikes and enjoy the colorful surroundings.... Absolutely worth a visit.....:-)

This is a really peaceful village with not much to see apart from the coloured hills, but in my opinion it largely beats some of the more touristy attractions. To get the best view of the hills, you have to take a small path that isnt very well marked, but you can get some info at the tourist information center. The path will take you across the main road and up a small hill. No need to climb the whole thing if you dont want, justgetting a bit of height gives you great views. I went just before sunrise, which made for a great spectacle as the colours revealed themselves with the sun.

Great erosion landscape showing many different colors. Worth while looking at in the morning and in the evening before sunset.
