Afternoon Horseback Ride
Waipi’o valley is temporarily closed to visitors at this time due to road construction..
We’ve ridden our horses out of Waipi’o Valley to WOH Ranch, a 500 acre ahupua’a two and a half miles from Waipi’o Valley lookout.
This ride is beautiful! A private 500 acre mountain to ocean working cattle ranch with breathtaking ocean views. You will ride through the largest Dwarf Malaysian coconut orchard on the island, apple banana groves, exotic fruit trees, and tilapia fishponds. We travel alongside the historic Hamakua Ditch, it’s over a century old and now a protected historic landmark on the property that irrigated the sugarcane fields during the plantation era. The pastures are blooming with purple flowers, guava and ironwoods. During the spring there are baby sheep, horses and calves.
Please feel free to give us a call if you have any questions about the tours.
We appreciate you and look forward to riding with you!
Aloha and Welcome to Waipi'o on Horseback!

You will be captivated by cascading waterfalls, 3,000 foot sheer cliffs, farmlands, and wild horses. Get an exclusive view of Naʻalapa falls as you tour the family farm where we lovingly tend rare fruit trees, lotus ponds and lo’i kalo (taro patches); Hawai’i’s staple food crop from ancient times.
Join our wranglers as they share their knowledge of Waipi’o Valley’s history, legends, flora and fauna throughout this 2 and a 1/2 hour tour.

Relaxing ride.
"A beautiful ride through the country side. While seeing the valley would have been amazing the ride was still breathtaking. The horses and guides both ensured we had a wonderful time!"
Amazing tour!
"Amazing! Awesome horses, knowledgeable tour guides! Amazing views!!! You will not regret doing this tour!"
A very fun and memorable experience
"The horseback riding was so much fun. We have two families and 4 kids in total. The kids loved it. There were three guides for a group of 9 people. The guides know well about each horse’s temperament. The orchid is great. We saw a large variety of tropical fruits. The landscape has enough variations to make the ride fun and enjoyable."
"The ranch is gorgeous! Mika was an amazing guide. If you’re looking to go horseback riding on the island. Waipio should be your first choice!"
The 5 Top Horseback Riding Tours on the Big Island of Hawaii
Even though there are many ocean activities in Hawaii, did you know there are fun things you can do on land?
Well, consider adding Big Island horseback riding to your bucket list.
Type horseback riding big island on the search engine field and you’ll find a handful of outfitters in the Kohala and Waimea areas.
Whether you are kama‘āina (resident) or a visitor, this once-in-a-lifetime adventure is sure to a lasting memory.
You can learn about the rich Hawaiian culture of how horses came about on the Big Island, the life of a paniolo or Hawaiian cowboy, and the few oldest working ranches still in operation today.
The cattle-ranching industry started with a Hawaiian king who saw potential and value when he was gifted with a horse.
According to Hawaiian history, American trader Richard Cleveland gave King Kamehameha I his first horse in 1803. The king had already received half a dozen cows and a bull ten years prior, in which he placed a royal decree forbidding their slaughter. After a horseriding demonstration, King Kamehameha saw the value of this special animal and soon after, more horses were brought to the island.
Many years later, cattle multiplied on Hawaii island.
King Kamehameha III called Spanish cowboys or vaqueros to teach locals how to corral livestock on horseback. That’s how paniolos came about.
More than a dozen working cattle ranches operate on the Big Island, some offering horseback riding services.
Paniolo Adventures
Dress up in cowboy hats, chaps, boots and Australian dusters for the real feel of how paniolos lived their days at the range. Paniolo Adventures offers scenic views of upcountry Hawaii and majestic views of Hawaii’s volcanoes: Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa and Hualālai.
On a clear day, there’s a good chance you could see the Haleakala volcano in Maui. The Ponoholo Ranch has 11,000 acres that span over three climate zones. This eco-friendly ranch also practices rotational grazing to reduce land erosion and excessive pasturing.
Where: At Ponoholo Ranch located in North Kohala past Waimea. Head towards Hawi on Highway 250. It’s the red barn on the left past mile marker 13.
Operation Hours: Monday thru Saturday, closed on Sundays.
Tour Offered: There are six different types of rides. You can choose a morning, noon or sunset ride and the level of rider experience.
Cost: Range from $89 to $185 from one to four hours.
Perk: Cowboy gear, sunscreen and bottled water are provided free of charge.

Contact Info: (808) 987-4872; https://4dquarterhorses.com/
Tip from this local: Call the ranch, they may be running specials or offer discounts if you have a large group. You may need to put down a credit card number to secure a booking. Most need at least 24 to 72 hours advance notice to cancel. Also, dress in long pants and closed-toe shoes. No one likes to be surprised when they step on cowpies.
In this lifetime, you can bet horseback riding on the Big Island is something you won’t ever forget.

Horseback Riding in the Valley of the Kings!!
- Waipio Horseback Riding
Waipio on Horseback is currently operating rides on their ranch located several miles away from Waipio Valley. The county of Hawaii has closed the road down into Waipio Valley to everyone except local residents due to the condition of the road. Waipio on Horseback rides will not be able to access the valley until after road construction is complete, and there is no anticipated date yet as the construction has not yet started. Instead of riding in the valley, the trail that is used takes riders through the ranch ... forests, pastures, fish ponds, with the highlight being a panoramic and picturesque ocean cliff overlook! Since the ride starts at the ranch where you park your car and there is no time spent shuttling horseback riders to the valley, the ride itself is 30 minutes longer than before (2 hours in the saddle instead of 90 minutes), and the distance that is ridden has increased as well! The price is the same for this ranch ride.
- 4WD van ride to the valley floor
- Guided horseback riding with an hour and a half in saddle
- Explore the valley by horseback
- Ride through streams and trails
Description
Waipio Horseback Riding tour offers special guided excursions in the beautiful and secluded Waipio Valley, also known as Hawaii's "Valley of the Kings." Your adventure begins at mile marker 7.5 on the road from Honokaa to the Waipio Valley overlook - where you check in for your ride and meet your guide. You'll begin your tour with a memorable and hair-raising 4 wheel drive van ride to the bottom of the valley floor. The road is the steepest in North America with a vertical drop of 900 feet in less than a mile. The road is so steep that In places the grade hits 45 degrees! Don't even think about taking your rental car down here. Getting into (and out of) the valley is half the fun of this tour.
When you arrive on the valley floor you find yourself in a land that is more lush and fertile than you can imagine. The valley is lined with steep cliffs and 1200 foot waterfalls. Near the back of the valley you get saddled up on your horse and begin your ride. The trek takes a leisurely pace, with guides narrating throughout the ride. They explain the history, legends, and facts of everyday life in the valley today. The trail meanders through lush jungle along the hillside, with many stream and river crossings. If you love to ride a horse wading through water, this is the ride for you!
Total time spent on horseback is about an hour and a half. Following the conclusion of the ride you still have to get OUT of the valley, and sitting in the back of the van gives you a great perspective on where you've been and just how steep the road really is!

When you stand at the overlook at Waipio it feels like the valley below is an entirely different world. When you get to the bottom you realize you were right, but you had no idea just how right you were. Life here is a taste of old Hawaii, long before there were resort hotels with infinity pools and fake waterfalls made out of concrete. This is the REAL deal … a few hours spent in this valley and you will NEVER want to go back to your day job.
When my wife and I did this tour our guide was Stacey. He is a crusty, long-time valley resident who has been driving this road for years. He was as animated and lively as any tour guide I've ever heard. He really MADE the whole experience … just riding in the van with him as the driver justified the tour price … and that was before we even got on the horses. This tour is a VERY good value considering that transportation is included in and out of the valley ... it costs about $70 a person just for a shuttle ride down to the valley floor by itself!
When we reached the stable in the back of the valley, we were joined by two other guides; a brother and sister who are also Waipio residents. I've been on some trail rides where the horses seem like they wish they were somewhere else… or they mindlessly follow the horse in front of them. These horses were well groomed and accepted rider instructions well. My horse was George Jr, and he did what I told him to do, not the other way around. I don't know; maybe George Jr. had the same thing to say about me!
What makes this ride really special - all the water crossings! There are times when you cross streams, other times your horse is walking up a stream and at one point the river was actually up to the horse's knees!
After the tour be sure to check out the logo t-shirts at the ranch. I really like the simple design and wearing the shirt the next day in Kona, I must have had a dozen people ask me about the ride. Great advertising I guess!
I recommend this ride highly, not just as a horseback ride, but as a great way to experience a very unique place in the world!
One final word about the road for those of you who are thinking of driving it. Yes, the road is VERY steep. Yes, four wheel drive is really required. As a matter of fact, if you are caught with a 2 wheel drive vehicle down in the valley you'll get a nasty ticket in the neighborhood of $300. The cost of that ticket pales in comparison with the cost of having that 2 wheel drive vehicle towed back out of the valley with a 4 wheel drive towtruck. I've heard that bill runs around $900. Even if you are renting a jeep, I do not recommend driving this road!

Overall rating
My family did this experience. It’s quite a drive to get to this place. I did this with my husband and 2 kids (ages 12 & 9). The tour guides were really friendly and informative. They chose our horses for us based on wei ... ght and experience. The horses know where they’re going so there’s little for the rider to do. The waterfall was very cold, deep, and there’s quite a current! Be prepared if you want to swim (we did!). They have kayaks and paddle boards if you prefer not to swim. My kids loved this experience and have been asking for horseback lessons since we got back. Bring a long sleeve shirt or light jacket just in case- we were chilly!
Ive always had a fear of horses but this activity helped get over my fear. The ladies were absolutely amazing in teaching us how to ride the horses and giving us a good laugh while on the ride. This activity gives you a ... different view of the land surrounding the waterfall. A must do when visiting for sure!
Amazing views! Great staff! So nice and helpful. Loved the waterfall spot!! Very refreshing!
