Horseback Ride Like an Authentic Paniolo in Kahuku

Horseback Ride Like an Authentic Paniolo in Kahuku

Overview

Climb into the saddle and see a new side of Hawaii

Enjoy a relaxing horseback ride through one of Oahu’s hidden treasures—the Hawaiian countryside of Gunstock Ranch. You and your horse will travel through shady forest trails and trek across open pastures, spotting grazing cattle, soaring island birds, and maybe even a family of wild pigs.

The grand finale of the tour is the lookout over the stunning North Shore coastline and the quiet town of Laie, nestled on the edge of the crystal-clear ocean. It’s a great spot for photos and a moment of relaxation in one of the most beautiful places around. Plus, the whole ride will be intimate, with small group sizes, so you can experience an authentic paniolo (Hawaiian cowboy) adventure.

Camilla and Ali have wonderful personalities and are a definite asset to Gunstock Ranch! Camilla was our guide and she really knows her way around a horse! Clearly she was passionate about showing us a great time and the best ride, safely. She even took excellent photo's of us at the top of the mountain! She is an awesome tour guide. Ali helped me with my very gentle, beautiful pinto. They are both friendly, kind and fun to be around. Ali used to live in New Mexico where we are from :-). They both made the experience so much fun!! This is a must on your to-do list if you love beautiful scenery and having fun on a horse. Mahalo!

My husband and I go on horseback trail rides on all of our vacations. Gunstock Ranch is one of the best experiences we have had on horseback together. The horses are very well behaved and taken care of, and our guide, Ari lead the way to the best view in town! I’ve been riding for 10+ years in lessons and shows, my husband only rides on vacation and we would recommend this ride for riders of all skill levels.

Mahalo for the kind words! We're so glad we exceeded expectations. It's always the best hearing from experienced riders as they have a different perspective and appreciation for the work that we do here and all that goes into it. Thank you for taking the time in leaving a review and we hope to see you back in the future riding with us! Aloha!

My girlfriend and I scheduled the 90 minute ride for Saturday October 19. As soon as we pulled in, it was obvious that this was going to be fun. The horses seamed happy and we were greeted with a smile by the young lady working. When it was our time to ride, we were introduced to our guide, Ty. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide, some other riders didn’t show, so we had a ride to ourselves. Ty kept up friendly conversation thru the ride and he got to know us and we him. Ty was very knowledgeable about the ranch and horses, he took pictures for us when we asked and was all and all a really nice guy. Would definitely book this ride again if we could request Ty as our guide.
