Overview
Get back to nature with Rancho Loco on the one and only horseback riding tour through Arikok National Park to the Natural Pool, Aruba’s most popular and most remote nature destination only reached by walking, horseback or 4x4. Our expert guides instruct and match you to your horse, no experience is needed. Your tour takes you into the Park for a relaxing ride on the Nacho Trail (no vehicle traffic) to experience a nature lover’s treasure that contains some of the most diverse flora, fauna and huge cacti in the region. Keep an eye out for wild goats as you ride up into highlands for photo worthy views of the island before descending to the coastline to reach the famous Natural Pool, a stunning formation of volcanic rocks that resemble a miniature mountain range, known locally as “Conchi”. Spend 30 minutes exploring the area or swimming in the pool before heading back to the ranch. Say goodbye to your trusty steed and have a cold drink at the bar (extra) before departing.

This was truly so fun!...
Published on May, 2025
This was truly so fun! The guides were amazing and I’m sorry I forgot their names! It’s such a great way to see the desert part of the island. Loved my horse Pico
Definently Worth the Trip
Published on May, 2025
This experience was beginner friendly, and everyone in my group loved it! My friend and I had Pico & CoCo, who were trying to excite each other to start trotting/galloping. The trail was beautiful, with a good breeze. The pool was refreshing and it was amazing to see the fish and crabs in it! Would definently recommend and come again.
100/10 experience!!!
Published on May, 2025
100/10. So easy to communicate with and such fast responses. The instructors/guides were phenomenal and were a joy to work with. We had so many laughs and had such a great time. We forgot our camera in the saddle bag and the owner drove to the resort to give it back to us. She was an absolute sweetheart. I guarantee you’ll have an amazing time if you book!
Horsing around
Published on May, 2025
Very pleasant and hospitable staff. Full-sun desert environment. I recommend water socks for the natural pool. And be sure to bring your snorkel and goggles.
