[Seven-Colored Hills of Purmamarca] You will be mesmerized by the gradations created by nature.

Purmamarca is a small town in the province of Jujuy in northern Argentina. Rising in the background is the Seven Colored Hill (Cerro de los Siete Colores). The hill, which is made up of overlapping layers of red, pink, orange, green, and purple, is so vivid that it is hard to believe it is a natural color, and it looks like a painting. The hill is right in front of the town, and you can look up at it from anywhere. With this hill behind it, the entire townscape of Purmamarca feels like a piece of art. ⸻ 📍Location Purmamarca, Jujuy, Argentina Fly from the capital Buenos Aires to Jujuy (about 2 hours), then drive from Jujuy for about 1.5 hours You can also access it by bus from Salta (about 3-4 hours) 🕰️Recommended time to visit Sunrise to morning (the colors look most vivid depending on the angle of the sunlight) In the evening, the light is backlit, so it is not suitable for viewing 💸Estimated cost ・Viewing the hill itself is free (you can see it from inside the town) ・Trekking along the "Path of Los Colores" around the back side of the hill costs about 300 pesos (about 1 3-hour course) ・Accommodation in the town is about 5,000 to 10,000 pesos per night (varies depending on the tourist season) ⸻ 🌟Points ・The altitude is about 2,300m, so if you are worried about altitude sickness, make sure to take fluids and move slowly ・It is a small town, so you can stay comfortably for 1-2 nights ・The colorful textiles and folk crafts sold at the local market are also attractive ・The hills change color with the sunrise, and you will never get tired of looking at their beauty ⸻ #Purmamarca #Seven-Colored Hills #CerroDeLosSieteColores #NorthernArgentina #Jujuy #StunningSceneryTour #AroundTheWorld
