A guide is essential on this three-and-a-half to four hour trek as the paths can get a little confusing. Heading south out of town the route leads to the ruins of an old mine then climbs to a plateau of rolling hills where the sacred mountain, said to look like an elephant, comes into view. From the top there is a great 360-degree view around the stark, mountainous countryside, dotted with cactuses and palms, and down to the desert way below.
