Join Nature Life Coach Gea Sougé and Aruba Conservation Foundation (ACF) for a mindful guided hike inspired by Naturalesa ta Papia through the landscapes of Spaans Lagoen.

Rooi Tambu is one of the largest gullies on the island. Our Nature Experience Ranger will guide you through this riverbed to Dos Playa beach, one of the most important sea turtle nesting sites on Aruba.

Jamanota Hill is the highest point on the island at 188M/617Ft. As you are guided by our Nature Experience Ranger, you will hike to the sub-top, which gives a panoramic view of the southern part of Aruba. This hike will also pass by the Miralamar Gold Mine Ruins trail.

As you are guided through this short hike by our Nature Experience Ranger to the top of Miralamar hill, you will follow a trail through dense vegetation. At the hilltop lie the Miralamar Gold Mine Ruins. At this location, mine shafts run underground where gold was extracted, processed, and transported to the Gold Smelter at Spaans Lagoen.

Following the Cunucu Arikok Trail guided by our Nature Experience Ranger is the best introduction to Aruba’s diverse flora and fauna. Geology and rich natural history are well present during this hike. The native Indian pictographs and adobe house recall olden times.
