[Humahuaca Hill of 14 Colors (Cerro de Hornocal / Serranía de Hornocal)]

[Humahuaca 14 Colors Hill (Cerro de Hornocal / Serranía de Hornocal)] — A natural palette painted by the earth that appears in the highlands of the Andes Mountains — The "14 Colors Hill" stands near Humahuaca in Jujuy Province in northwestern Argentina at an altitude of about 4,700m, and its colorful rock surface, layered by crustal movements and years of erosion, is eye-catching . ⸻ 📍[Location] About 25km northwest from the center of Humahuaca. Drive by car or tour bus up the unpaved road to reach the observation deck . 🕰[Best time to see] The slanting light from 3pm to 6pm makes the colors look vivid, so late evening is recommended. ⸻ ✨Recommended points – 14 colorful layers of rock are like art carved into the earth – The breathtaking view from an altitude of about 4,700m is so powerful that it will take your breath away  – Combine it with the Humahuaca Valley and other colored hills (the 7-colored hills of Purmamarcalmar) to enjoy the local natural beauty  ⸻ 🎒 Tips – It takes time to acclimatize to the altitude, so it is better to stay in Humahuaca for a few days beforehand – There is a 5-10 minute walk to the observation deck. Take precautions against altitude sickness and walk slowly – The cold wind and strong UV rays mean that a hat, warm clothing, and sunscreen are essential – If you go on your own, there are unpaved roads and elevation changes. It is safe to use a 4WD vehicle or a local tour #Absolutely free trip #Argentina #Purmamarca
