Visitors now have a rare opportunity to explore areas of the approximately 150,000-acre working ranch through rolling green hillsides with majestic Mauna Kea as a backdrop. Learn first-hand about Parker Ranch, with its deep history, beautiful landscapes, stunning vistas, variety of plant life, and may even catch glimpses of pheasant, Francolins, or wild pigs.

Minimum age requirement is 7 years and older making this an ideal family activity, whether family members are beginners, intermediate or advanced riders. Cowboys of Hawaii at Parker Ranch can arrange private rides for special excursions. Exclusive Japanese-speaking rides are also available.

Riders will feel like Hawaiian paniolo (cowboys) as they ride through old stone corrals where up to 5,000 Hereford cattle were once rounded up after being brought down from the slopes of Mauna Kea. A visit to the rodeo arena and racetrack where Parker Ranch Thoroughbreds were trained and still hold the record for speed is included in the excursion. Rides all begin at the Blacksmith Shop on Pukalani Road.
