    Hiking

    This beautiful place located in Gorafe owes its name to the predominant color in the geological formations of its clay soils.

    Beautiful area of clayey soil located in Gorafe. It receives the name of Los Coloraos due to the color of the geological formations.

    Sunrise and sunset are especially ideal to enjoy this natural wonder in all its splendor.

    Hiking

    Los Coloraos is best experienced in early morning or late evening when golden light enhances the colour of the canyon walls into beautiful hues of red, magenta and orange.
    This is also an amazing location to cook dinner/breakfast and view sunset/sunrise.
