Amarugia Highlands Conservation Area offers a concrete boat ramp and disabled-accessible fishing jetty on the 45-acre Amarugia Lake, along with primitive toilet facilities on the west side of the lake.

The area provides access to the South Grand River and South Fork Creek for paddling and fishing, with a mowed one-mile out-and-back trail through lowland prairie and forest.

This remote 1,081-acre conservation area near Archie, Missouri is open for public use from 4 a. m. to 10 p. m. daily, though hunting is permitted seasonally.
