Aripe is located between Guía de Isora and Chirche. This hamlet, declared a Site of Cultural Interest in 2008, is the perfect setting to learn about a past linked to farm work, which resulted in an important architectural heritage, visible both in the traditional houses and in the existing ethnographic footprint, which includes ovens and threshing floors.
Natural and architectural heritage blend perfectly in this small rural hamlet, where landscapes of exceptional beauty seem to connect with the urban environment.
The origins of the village are Guanche, as evidenced by the collection of rock carvings in the Aripe area; however, it is believed to have been established as a settlement in the 17th century.
This settlement was initially focused on livestock farming, which was joined by agriculture based on cereals and almonds during the 18th century. This agricultural activity persisted throughout this period and led to an increase in population, but it entered into crisis in the second half of the century.
The link between this settlement and agricultural activity is reflected not only in its surroundings, but also in the festivals celebrated in the village, such as the Majada de la Almendra.
