Even more incredible than the postcards have you believe! The town is pretty and small and sits at the foot of the seven coloured mountain which is brightly coloured in different shades of red, orange, yellow, cream and green. Even more spectacular is the valley behind. The colours of the unvegetated hillsides are unbelievable. There is some good hiking to be had here if you´re game to not go with a guide!
