Mount Jamanota
Jamanota
Aruba's highest point, about 188 metres above sea level and inside the national park. From the summit you can see both the east and west coasts of the island.
Jamanota lies on the western side of Arikok National Park and is the highest point on the island. A paved track leads near the summit, though vehicle access is sometimes restricted, and the last stretch is a short walk of a few minutes. From the top you can see both the windswept north coast and the calm south coast. Along the way you may spot cactus forests, wild goats and, occasionally, the Aruban parrots found only on the island. The site lies within the national park, so follow park rules when visiting. Early morning or late afternoon is recommended.
