The town has many places for backpackers, many people have stayed her for years. You either like it or you don't, but its worth a visit as there are many hikes to villages, coffee tours and volcano's from here. Bars and food for everyone, if you over do it on booze, you can also find plenty of herbal tea's, juice bars and yoga classes.

At 2900m We organised our tour to La Muela Volcano from Xela. We walked for about 1 1/2 hours from the town, we meet a local woman aged about 85 and her granddaughter walking the same way. She walks this root every day to go to work! At the top of the hill before the climb to the top of the volcano there is a shop, where we stopped for a rest and a drink. There was 4 police men who said they will walk to the top with us. They was great entertainment as they started singing. They even thought I was Nicholas Cage lol. The climb was quite challenging as there was many rocks, but the views was breathtakingly. On the way back down from the shop, we took a ride back in a pickup truck with the police. Great views Photo shoot with Nicholas Cage Adios Policia A well deserved chicken soup on our return
