Why go
The hill rises near the middle of Aruba, and its long concrete stairway makes the panorama feel earned. The name means “haystack” in Dutch, a useful clue to its distinct shape when seen from across the island. On the way up, watch for lizards, parakeets and goats as well as the changing view.
What to look for
- The long stairway climbs the hill’s distinctive haystack profile.
- Look for lizards, parakeets and goats along the ascent.
- The summit opens to a wide view across Aruba.
Useful to know
- Allow for a sustained stair climb rather than a level viewpoint visit.
- Take the climb in the cooler part of the day; the ascent is exposed.
